I always liked this one. It ran almost exactly ten years ago. Mercy, where does the time go? Of course, its inspiration was the old oyster adage, and what happened to that? There once was a time when we would never dream of eating a raw oyster in a month that didn’t have an “r” in it; now they tell us that no longer matters. I suspect they just want to sell more oysters, but maybe it doesn’t matter: raw oysters aren’t safe year-round anymore!
