Is that real lobster? Because if it is, it looks like a good imitation of imitation.

Of course it's real - you can't see in the photo but the waves are crashing on the rocks just 10 meters away. Actually, I don't think i've even seen imitation lobster before.

Jvanv8 is in Maine. Lobster central. It isn't faked over there.

On the boat heading for Ekerö. Great highspeed roads combined with a chilly but sunny day!

That's exactly what they want you to think, and how they can get away with it. Guess what, imitation lobster is less expensive than real lobster ... even in Maine.

Actually, the USAILA was tipped off, and the lobster roll tested positive for pollock, but the ULI covered up the results after receiving a donation from an anonymous investor, initials "L.A.", in the lobsta roll purveyor.

Out in the hills in Melbourne this morning. The weather ended up clearing but it was rather horrid over the top of the hill.


Did you know that everytime an australian uses the words 'weather' and 'horrid' in the same sentance a kitten dies? 8)

Let's have a rule. No shots of Northern Hemisphere members. Not Southern Hemisphere members.

Some things best remain private.

And don't forget about shrinkage.

Speaking of adverse weather, if I submitted a photo from my on the road over the weekend it would have been the inside of my garage on the trainer. We had winds up to 140km/h over the weekend and torrential rain. But there was still one local team out training in the crap we just had, for the Tour Of Southland which quite often races in hail, snow and howling gales.
