Talking A good laugh

I received a call today from someone wanting to know how to keep the 2 lobster that he had just bought from safeway as pets.
After I found out that the guy was actually serious..I tried to answer a couple of questions..
When I asked if he had a tank set up, he replied that he had an habitat set up..not sure what that meant so I just left that alone.
then he asked me how much table salt he should add to the water..
At that point..I told him to do research on the net...but apparently he thought I should have all the questions cuz he kept asking them..what do they eat..how long will they live in the bag for..etc..etc..
After a few more futile questions, I told him the best thing to do would be to put the 2 lobsters in a pot with the table salt and a couple of teaspoons of butter and put the burner to high.
Apparently, He didnt' like that advice or have a sense of humour or so the dial tone would dictate...
Just thought I would share this with people...as it certainly made my afternoon.
