        <content>All that talk about trademarking this and trademarking that, as well as searching for a cuter name for claws, has me wondering.

      <content>Interesting article.   She comes off maybe too cocky, like she can single handedly save the lobster.   But, she's throwing a lot of money at it, isn't she?   The 'Lobster Cuddler' rename for lobster claws is just silly.</content>

      <content>"Lobster Cuddlers" is beyond silly. It's downright insane.  As is the attempt to trademark the phrase "In a Class by Itself."  I read the article and concluded that it's a good thing this woman already has a lot of money, because her ideas don't exactly scream "goldmine" to me.</content>

      <content>Have you guys tasted her "Perfect" Maine Lobster Rolls?   BLECH!!  The worst I've ever tasted.  Tiny, expensive, and they put a mayo blend ON the bun and then the previously frozen lobster!!!  $15.50 for a 1/4 pound.  With my iced tea (which came in a plastic cup with no lemon) total:  $19.35.    Go to Liam McGuire's in Falmouth Center.  $24 bucks but worth every bite.</content>
