It taste so good when you are sitting right there on the water where it came from! Sometimes I wonder why I live in a land locked state.

I forget the name, but the fresh shrimp and chairs that feel like you're going fall through them are not easily forgotten.

I once growled at my oldest kid, all of 4, because he was trying to take a shrimp from me while we were all eating a boil (yes, a place in Greeley, CO serves it, a guy who loves and cooks cajun food at a biker bar). My wife gave me a look, and I gave him the shrimp. But I'd do it again. Astin, Astin, Astin.

They say they got sick on it once," You could have just written, "I know why CJ doesn't like shrimp. He got sick on it once." The funny part... I eat crawfish, which are really just little shrimp. “I understand why some people don’t like shrimp. They say they got sick on it once,”

They are, at best, shrimpish. Me? I'm a fan of the sautée myself. In a buttered pan, transluscent with black stripes, drop in the minced garlic and grate some fresh ginger on top, and cook until pink... no longer. Boiled? Only if you plan on making a bisque.
