All the weird stuff happens in Wisconsin…

Back in the summer, I was shocked to read this story about a man in Appleton, WI – my college town – who covered himself in BBQ sauce to hide from the government.

Now my sister tells me about a different man in WI who tried to steal….get this….$625 worth of lobster and steak from a grocery store. At least he has taste.

All you can catch Maine lobster

This is genius. Two brothers in Maine have established a business called “Catch a Piece of Maine” which allows people to become a partner and receive all the lobsters caught in a lobster trap in one year – all for the mere cost of $2,995.

These partners can also check out how their lobster trap is performing throughout the year by checking in online.

They even tout how it supports local fishermen:

Catch a Piece of Maine’s community supported fishery model directly supports lobsterman and the working waterfront of Maine. Your support allows lobstermen to receive a premium for their product at a time when external economic factors make it hard to make a living from the sea.
