Yeah, "Larry the Lobster"

I was kidding anyway. Don't know anything about them except I had
crawdad etouffee once. Red beans, rice and crawdads in a spicy sauce.

My uncle once got a job driving sheet and piles after the foreman
asked if he could climb. Uncle said "Like a squirrel."
First time the foreman asked him to climb a sheet, uncle said "I ain't
going up there. Don't like heights."
Foreman said, "You said you could climb like a squirrel!"
Uncle said "Sure. A ground squirrel."
That's what made me think of "land crawdad."
