9/26/09 - sweet vengence dipped in butter

On the set of “Julie & Julia,” the lobsters posed a special challenge. Ms. Adams appears to plunge two live lobsters into a pot of steaming water. The steam is actually a cool mist, and just off camera representatives from the American Humane Association monitored the creatures’ health.

The lobsters' health professionals probably get paid better than any health official I have seen in recent years. This makes me slightly bitter and I will be happy to have my revenge on their species when I attend a wedding in Maine next month and eat some of their kin slathered in melted butter.
