It was a banner day for birds

Shrimp pâté. Shrimp creole. Shrimp ceviche. Shrimp etoufee.

These are all delicious dishes prepared with shrimp. Also, you would not find them yesterday on US 19, despite having a large portion of the ingredients available.

In Port Richey, Florida, a woman was driving a box truck full of live shrimp. This was seemingly all for not, as a driver, now listed by the police under the category of drunk, sideswiped the truck, causing it to flip … along with its contents. Minuscule arthropod upon minuscule arthropod upon minuscule arthropod came spilling upon the asphalt, flipping about but not sizzling under the hot sun as the accident happened in the early morning. Think less shrimp on the barbie and more shrimp on the cold slab of road.
