Bricklayers are NOT Crustaceans!

“Some people think they can be both a "Crustacean and a Bricklayer". No way. The two are opposed one to the other. The American Heritage Dictionary defines a Crustacean as “any of various predominantly aquatic arthropods of the class Crustacea, including lobsters, crabs, shrimps, and barnacles, characteristically having a segmented body, a chitinous exoskeleton, and paired, jointed limbs” while Bricklayers practice an ancient trade. True Crustaceans would be well advised to steer clear of Bricklayers as they have strong hands and work up a powerful appetite! This of course will upset most people but this is just what I believe.”

“If people saw some of the crap that crustaceans feed on they would hang up their crab mallets.”

“I can second that Tom. But are bricklayers bottomfeeders?”

“Bricklayers start at the bottom and work their way up.”

“Barnacle Bill is pretty dang crusty! ;)”

“A white sport coat and a pink crustacean...”

“I nearly keeled over when I saw that the guys at NASA had named one of the rocks in the Pathfinder pics after "Barnacle Bill".

more weirdness.”

“ROTFLMAO”

“OMG....LOL......”

“They are NOT compatible?”

“Not compatible??? I'll bet there are MANY bricklayers who LOVE seafood.”

“Right over the old head!”

“I don't need to hear about you all laying bricks!! Just be sure to give a courtesy flush.”

“I always wanted to be a brick mason (oldest construction trade), but they found out my parents were married. So I settled for the second oldest - carpentry.”

“I love the Barnacle Bill song :]”

“I am a member of the world's second oldest profession. First it was the prostitutes, and then a journalist came along to write about them.”

“I thought that was pimps, Geo...”

“They missed a few verses, tho'...

“well i thought it was a rock......but it was a rock lobster...”

“watch out for the bikini whale!”

“down... Down...”

“Yeah, the land of Mortar. Ratrom spelled backerds. Didn't mean to confuse Plubnum Airship quips with what one may have in one's pocketses. Like bits of Masonry or baked clay as thick as a brick. "Is that a building stone in yer pocket?" "Why no, 'tis me trouser trout. Me Pocket Parrot left weeks ago, my precious."”
