Blue crabs are certainly a useful accompaniment to a couple pitchers
of Natty Bo, but one must take a _few_ artistic liberties to make the
above statement.

Take a drive out to the Olympic Peninsula and stop by a seafood joint
in Dungeoness; ask for two crabs.

Opinions will change.

BTW - the best blue crabs I ever had were prepared by my NO friend; he
      did them just like crawfish in a boil - _very_ tasty. Some native
      folk had a "Lizbeth - I'm coming to join ya", but they later agreed
      that it was a fine way to prepare them.
