Fisherman Leaves Tub of Scallop Organs in Wrong Car

By   get stories by email

"A Maine fisherman's wife said he is trying to find a plastic tub of scallop organs he placed in a car he mistakenly thought belonged to a graduate student.

Michelle Mays of Southwest Harbor said her husband, Andy, spent six months collecting scallops and he stored the organs from the sea creatures in formaldehyde as part of a research project.

'What we don't want is someone to say, 'What the hell is this doing in my car?' and throw it away,' she said.

Andy Mays wasted six months of his life collecting scallop organs, and now his wife is going to waste a few days trying to find them.

If I found a plastic tub of scallop organs in my car, I would exclaim, "What the hell is this doing in my car", and throw the crap away.

I would not post a "lost and found" ad on Craigslist or create a Facebook page for the tub of scallop organs.

I would dismiss the scallop organs as a random act of tomfoolery, and worry about more important matters, like why on Earth do well-compensated particle physicists like Leonard and Sheldon have to share a crummy apartment.
