Ha, my lobster initiation was similar. I grew up in a small town in Texas where no one had ever had lobster. When I was in law school, I went to DC to interview for a job at a white shoe law firm. They treated me to lunch at a fancy French restaurant. I was seated on the banquette just a foot or two from Vice President Walter Mondale. When I saw lobster on the menu, my eyes grew bigger than my brain, and I ordered it. When they brought the whole creature, I had no idea what to do. So I plunged in, and proceeded to spray lobster juice on the Vice President and everyone else nearby. I can report that Mr. Mondale was a perfect gentleman, and never said a word.
