$7 Red Lobsters

I am not really into seafood, but I could not pass the $7 lobster. Did anyone grab a lobster at the Quad last Thursday? I did, and it was amazing (especially with the melted butter). If I came five minutes later, I would have not been able to eat one because they ran out! So here's a photo of my red lobster! I just had to capture it in the photo- it's not often that I lobster for that price!

Here's a link I found about Lobsters. Did you know there are over 25 types of lobster? I didn't... Anyhow, the link also includes recipes, teaches you how to buy a lobstor and other links about lobster. Enjoy!

Define Lobster:
(Zo["o]l.) Any large macrurous crustacean used as food, esp. those of the genus Homarus; as the American lobster (H. Americanus), and the European lobster (H. vulgari). The Norwegian lobster (Nephrops Norvegicu) is similar in form. All these have a pair of large unequal claws. The spiny lobsters of more southern waters, belonging to Palinurus, Panulirus, and allied genera, have no large claws. The fresh-water crayfishes are sometimes called lobsters.


The Meaning of the Color Red:

Red is the color of fire and blood, so it is associated with energy, war, danger, strength, power, determination as well as passion, desire, and love.

Red is a very emotionally intense color. It enhances human metabolism, increases respiration rate, and raises blood pressure. It has very high visibility, which is why stop signs, stoplights, and fire equipment are usually painted red. In heraldry, red is used to indicate courage. It is a color found in many national flags.

Red brings text and images to the foreground. Use it as an accent color to stimulate people to make quick decisions; it is a perfect color for 'Buy Now' or 'Click Here' buttons on Internet banners and websites. In advertising, red is often used to evoke erotic feelings (red lips, red nails, red-light districts, 'Lady in Red', etc). Red is widely used to indicate danger (high voltage signs, traffic lights). This color is also commonly associated with energy, so you can use it when promoting energy drinks, games, cars, items related to sports and high physical activity.

Light red represents joy, sexuality, passion, sensitivity, and love.
Pink signifies romance, love, and friendship. It denotes feminine qualities and passiveness.
Dark red is associated with vigor, willpower, rage, anger, leadership, courage, longing, malice, and wrath.
Brown suggests stability and denotes masculine qualities.
Reddish-brown is associated with harvest and fall.
