Oysters are a gross food to order on a first date.
It could also be the start of an awesome first date.

But that story's all over the place. I've been to tons of oyster festivals, where they're coming right off the boats. And maybe they'll be $1.50 a shuck for a dozen, but usually $2. So that's $18 - $24 per dozen (or 13). Most restaurant oysters are $3 - $4 each. So $15 per dozen sounds... umm... fishy.

And at these festivals, Mrs. Scotch and I will each polish-off up to 2 dozen, in the course of an afternoon. But 4 dozen at one shot is just a stunt for Tik-Tok.

Sounds like a rucking hard workout!

I've been doing this for years. Except instead of the backpack, I distribute the 30 pounds around my waist.

And I'm sure we will learn that he bought his AR-15 legally. Here is a picture of Robert Card. He has been arrested several times for domestic violence and other offenses and he "has shown no signs of mental illness." Yeah.....until tonight.
