...but Yes to having a sense of humor.

That is interesting. The article named most of the caveats, so I'm sure the owners are watching it closely.

I wonder how much they sell them for and do you buy one at a time or a box with more? One thing about it, live oysters, like clams, scallops, mussels and other molluscs have closed shells. If the shell is open you don't eat it.

Probably not in shells but refrigerated - not many folks hit the vending machines carrying an oyster shucking knife.....although there might be opening scene for a movie in that,

From the article, I assumed these machines were for after hour sales, when people wanted to buy oysters and take them home to eat. Would be a bit difficult for on the spot consumption. But, would gives new meaning to "the boyz was just standing around shucking and jiving".

The other two reports listed on that page give further indication of what is taken seriously enough by the community to warrant notice in the newspaper as well as by authorities. Altogether, I am not sure what to conclude about their priorities and level of mischief.

Taco Bell, now the most popular Mexican Restaurant in Rockford.

I wonder how many Mexican restaurants there are in Rockford?

The above sign probably indicates the correct answer is none.

Of course, the sign also begs the question:
I wonder how many Mexicans there are in town to support a "Mexican" restaurant.

You go to a Chinese restaurant, like I did in Boston some years ago, as well as in NYC , and you always see plenty (a majority , I'd assert) of Chinese patrons.
