Sorry, I was momentarily detained. My use of the tilde prompted local law enforcement to ask for my certificate of live birth.

Do they give squirrels those? What was the nest location?

Better late than never, it's about time those boys started doing their job.

But time may be running out: Oil from the spill had crept to within 12 miles of the coast, which could coat as soon as Friday. A third leak was discovered, which government officials said is spewing five times as much oil into the water as originally estimated — about 5,000 barrels a day coming from the blown-out well 40 miles offshore.

If the well cannot be closed, almost 100,000 barrels of oil, or 4.2 million gallons, could spill into the Gulf before crews can drill a relief well to alleviate the pressure. By comparison, the Exxon Valdez, the worst oil spill in U.S. history, leaked 11 million gallons into Alaska's Prince William Sound in 1989.



A federal class-action lawsuit was filed late Wednesday over the oil spill on behalf of two commercial shrimpers from Louisiana, Acy J. Cooper Jr. and Ronnie Louis Anderson.

The suit seeks at least $5 million in compensatory damages plus an unspecified amount of punitive damages against Transocean, BP, Halliburton Energy Services Inc. and Cameron International Corp.

Is it coincidence that this happend right after more offshore fields were approved to be opened? Oil vs. natural gas?

Did somebody blow something up on purpose? I'm just sayin' ...
