The Angry Crab

While we were in Kosrae, we noticed hundreds of land crabs. They were always out and about. But, at night, they came out in force. They're favorite place to be? In the middle of the road. One night we were returning to our apartments from the gymnasium. It was approximately an 8 or 9 minute drive back to the apartments from the gym. David and Todd (our former NBA players) and I were ahead of the second group--they apparently stayed at the gym after we had left.

On our return, Todd noticed a giant land crab in the middle of the road. David told him to pull over. We did. David, a great adventurer, pulled off his basketball jersey and proceeded to snare the crab. He put it in the bed of the pickup truck and we continued on our merry way. Now, we constantly scheme on these trips to get the better of our travel mates, and David came up with a brilliant idea. Let's put the crab in someone's bed.

Awesome. Of course, we chose Pastor Dan because he constantly wants to do crazy, but not illegal, things. We snuck into his apartment and David carefully placed the crab in Dan's bed. He was sharing an apartment with Dick and Chris. When they returned, we all decided to "hang out" in their apartment. What ensued was simply, well, interesting. 

David kept pulling the, "Hey, I'm tired. Let's go to bed" line so Dan would head to his bedroom. Finally, Dan went into his bedroom. About a minute later, we heard a shriek. This video is the result:
