To the Mayer family,
Merry Christmas to all of you.
It was very thoughtful of you to offer to send us some fresh lobsters, but the way we move around, it's never a good idea to send us perishables. Besides, Murdock would probably name them and that would lead to B.A. getting mad about lobsters roaming around the back of the van. Yes, best to avoid that. Even lobsters destined for the pot don't need to be traumatized.
Next time we're in the area, we certainly wouldn't turn down a lobster dinner. Just make sure Murdock doesn't see them until they're already cooked.
