Erik,
Understandable, though Aaron is absolutely correct. If you reference
Dirk's it behooves you to mention you have a professional affiliation with Dirk's.

Neither Aaron, MAG, me or anyone else suspects you are trying to up Dirk's weekly gross with a couple of lbs. of crawfish. The crawfish info was both relevant and timely, but if you work at a store, and are talking about the place, you (and by you I mean everyone who participates on LTHForum) should mention that fact.
Speaking of Dirk's weekly gross, Steve Z and I were discussing the Valentine's Day meals we cooked for our wives. I did
Homaro Homard the 5.5 LB Lobster and Steve two gigantic Australian lobster tails, both purchased at Dirk's. We both realized, simultaneously in the conversation, by the time we added up lobster, wine etc., we could have gone to Blackbird for dinner and had money left over. Ok, we knew that from the start, but we were enjoying grousing about the price of lobster.

I'd think having blue hair, and not of the type found in Miami Beach, it'd be impossible to hide just about anywhere.
By the way, I've, since your
knife sharpening tutorial, just about managed to get a good edge on my newish
Korin carbon steel chef's knife.
Enjoy,
Gary
