I'm taking applications for those willing to help chase Lobster down the trail with a pot of boiling water and a ziplock of drawn butter... that should help keep his speed up.

No, I think you need to see a support group for issues.

It's kinda hard to run with a pot of boiling water...and then you gotta stop and get it boiling again....

Barbecue lobster sounds just as good. Maybe bring a torch and a shell-cracker?

No need for a pot. Dig a hole and build a fire in it. Fill with a layer of wet leaves and put in the lobster. Cover with another layer of wet leaves and then some dirt. When done, leave it there to rot. LNT!

Would birds eat lobster meat? maybe we could find some bearbag rope and set something up Prometheus-style.

What do you think brings out the lobster? Winter draws the scorpions and lady bugs into my cabin. Is it some primal need to bite the hand that reads him?

Lobster has crabs. He itches with one claw and posts with the other.

That would be awesome if you set the new speed record. Here's what you do: Let all the NOBO's start and then you start after them. Then you can fly by each and everyone of them. Then you can have an accurate count of how many blue-blazed, yellow blazed, "quit", how many hostels they stayed at, what the new trends are, and how many are hiking at 20+ mile days, and how many are real hikers. Then you could report back here and give us your data. Then maybe you'd stop posting the same stupid questions over and over here and wasting bandwith.

Not sure anyone would be interested in the results other than yourself. Atleast we'd have you off the net for 45 days. Interested?

He will not get through Vermont if somone doesn't make a meal of him before then. I'm kind of surprised he's been around as long as he has. Most lobsters don't live that long.;)

You didn't say how much of a head start he should give them though. However, all in all I thought this was a pretty well thought out plan. :D

Lobster might just be the one thing we all agree on.

Except unless he is serious, this is the straight forward forum.

You know we enable Lobster to do what he does... I'm as guilty as anyone. We should just ignore his threads and eventually he will stop. Somehow we all end up giving him what he wants... attention.

What will you do if the big bad police ask to inspect your claw?

Hey LW, don't join the peanut gallery. I had a good time support teaming in the past with you and Maineak and I thought you might be a member of my team.

I will train even harder now to prove the naysayers wrong.

Lobster nuggets. No kiddin!

Hey Lobster-
good luck - and remember.....everyone hikes their own hike!!! Including me.

lobster has probably hiked more than most of youz who post on his threads. I've eaten lobsters with lobster. I know who he is.:cool:

So clue us in.... why his need to keep posting "stir the pot" threads? If I thought a poster was really interested in a controversial subject, I'd have no issue with a genuine exploration of the topic. But to post from an attitude of instigation leaves a lot to be desired.

Lone Wolf

Put him on your ignore list. Simple

SGT Rock
11-21-2006, 12:30
And stop his permission to start threads in the straight forward area.

Blue Jay

Because poor lobster can't stop breaking his arms and typing fingers patting himself on the back because he thruhiked. For some strange reason the trail effects some people like that. I think it's a strange purist virus that turns you into a troll.

Does anyone have any records of someone four wheeling the AT?

If not, it looks like i may be the first.;)

Just kidding.:D
