Crabs fart

It's true, just watched a skipper on one of the crab boats off the north Alaskan coast sniffing the air, he said "I look for little bubbles on the water if it's calm, they're little farters you know".

I sat there fascinated, he said "we'll be back later after we've shot the traps", sure enough, later on his traps were full, the crew all had screwed up faces as they tried to hold their breath when hauling aboard, . . I thought rotties stank too.

If there's a smell in the house, . . blame it on the crabs.

Re: Crabs fart

Just watched cap'n Phil on the Cornelia Marie, (he's the sniffer), . . another boat played a dirty trick by tying a scrap pick-up truck to one of his traps earlier, the winch was straining as they hauled the thing up, he said "what the #*^* is that", then broke down laughing.

Cap'n Phil of the Cornelia Marie was ashore all last year, . . he had taken a blood clot in his heart and was lucky to survive it, . . he's a heavy smoker.

He's back at sea again and still smoking like a chimney.
