Would You Like Crabcakes With Your Humble Pie?

Things have gotten so bad for us that we've stopped paying all but the bare essentials because we just can't afford it. Actually, we can't afford the bare essentials either, but that's all we can borrow to pay for. So, we don't have TV now.

What we hadn't noticed before, because we didn't know it, was that the Bible also says not to eat shell fish, and the delicious food they were serving at this talk radio reception was Alaskan Crab Cakes.

Nice the way they slipped that in without hitting you upside the head with it.
