Happy Birthday to my favorite Crustacean!
The Crustacean is suspicious of Mr. Nilsson’s motives. It’s something about the way he smiles — so greedily! Also, it’s not his birthday.
The Crustacean makes an excuse — he sees an old friend across the beach. Mr. Nilsson wheedles, but the Crustacean has already skittered off.
Oh well… this beach is crawling with Crustaceans!
Miscellaneous Mischief: September 16 at 2:43 PM.
Two friends were walking along the boardwalk and saw a man acting suspiciously. The friends watched as the suspect dropped a banana peel on the ground and walked away. They chased after the suspect, who ran down the boardwalk and boarded the carousel, then disembarked and vanished into the crowd. A search of the area turned up several other suspects, but not this one.
This morning at approximately 4:17 AM, several residents of Happy Valley called into the local radio station, KUGH, to report strange activity in the sky. It soon became clear that this was no ordinary UFO sighting. A local artist was called in to sketch their descriptions:
Kathy Richards, 62, first described the unidentified object as “a huge head with a curly tail.” When pressed, she detailed its bushy eyebrows and tumorous chin.
Gus Yates, 35, was the only city resident to report a sighting. Having spied the creature through his bathroom window, he only caught a glimpse, but noted its shrill cry.
Lena and Lyle Trask gave the most detailed description. The couple, who both work the early shift at a dairy, were walking to work when the creature swooped down. “At first I thought it was our friend Hugh the owl, so I was surprised when I saw the face,” Lena reported. Added Lyle, “It was the flying head of a man in his late sixties or early seventies. It wasn’t anybody I knew.”
