"1st World" Oysters
Today is the first business day for willapa-oysters.com, my Dad's pet project and future online seafood behemoth.
Not that I could tell, because the main means of advertisement for the site, Google Ads, does not show up on my search (remember, I live in a 3rd World country :P). But thankfully my Dad told me about it and I was able to see his ads by using a US proxy. If you're not in the US you can't get his oysters/clams/etc. anyway, so I guess it makes sense.
OTOH, if you can get his products, it's most definitively worth a try. I happened to live in Oysterville, WA for a few years and the local seafood is fantastic. Everything that is produced locally is extremely fresh and has excellent taste. That includes oysters and clams (which you can now get next-day from my Dad's site) and also salmon, halibut, sturgeon and other yummy seafood (which you'll actually have to visit the Peninsula to try for yourself--like Bill Clinton did).
When you place an order, remember to mention the keyword "FREECAP" and get a really nice "absolutely fresh" baseball cap for free :) (valid until Xmas '04).
