Re: Sign in if your done with BP forever!
Read in the paper recently that the rig had a fire earlier this year even. The last casing of the drill didn't get cement either. A dead battery on the BOP, a faulty piece somewhere else...whatever could go wrong did. And then there are the people making the decisions. Just to cut corners and save a...

Re: The Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico
I was going to address this to 12lb but he's not reading this anymore. BUT. When I say people along the Gulf Coast are saying Hayward is a moron and other things, I'm talking about every person I know that lives in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida. Not one of them has had anything good to...

Re: NHL 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs
What did Pronger do?
Eh, hockey going into possibly mid-June is just getting ridonkulous. The NHL really needs to scale it back a bit. Get rid of some of the southern teams,go back to 80 games and best of five for the first round.

Alright there wiscoleeds, nevermind, you win. My apologies. Ignore my 'blathering' and my geographical poking.

Re: The Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico
Hayward's statements have made him to be a moron for the face of BP. That is felt throughout southeast Louisiana and the Gulf Coast. I could use other words as well. His total lack of respect, arrogance and lying is a pretty good reason to call him a moron. Look at what he's done for the face of the...

Re: Margaritaville Tea
I was wondering about this, the teas, but have never seen anything and of course the website doesn't say anything about them. Yet. From what I've gathered here I probably won't buy any (seeing that I've had the Land Shark and haven't had it again). Is it that he or whoever is representing Jimmy is j...

Re: Jimmy never coming back to Cleveland??
The last time Jimmy played New Orleans was 1999 (on tour, not Margaritaville, which is generally impossible to get into, and Jazz Fest, of course). He just doesn't seem interested in playing here in a touring capacity I guess.

Re: The Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico
I googled it and it shows several BP stations in Louisiana. But I travel the Gulf Coast and I see them all over the place.

Re: The Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico
The ones I've seen in the past close to me have been turned into Texaco stations or some other discount gas station. But they've got gas stations in Louisiana.

Re: I'm just putting this out there....
You told the person that you lost your job or whatever and you offered to pay them if they couldn't sell the ticket anyway and they still gave you a hard time? That sounds bad on THEM from the get go. That doesn't sound like a friend to me.

Re: Sign in if your done with BP forever!
Certainly you can giggle at the geographical poke huh? That's not a lot of people compared to the amount of people in this country yet alone this region. And I'm not responsible for the BP station people losing their jobs if they do anyway - BP is. Do you have any figures for what this catastrophe h...

Re: The Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico
Hey wiscoleeds, my emotions are mine and so are my statements. You sound like you're sitting on some high horse. You obviously don't have even the slightest clue as to what's really going on down here based on your words. Seeing where you live you might have some concerns about when BP dumped amonia...

Re: Sign in if your done with BP forever!
They're gonna make money on the oil they get, don't you worry about that. Besides, a big part of the reason they're taking so long and denying things is because they get fined for it. So they're trying to reduce their own responsibility for their own mess. That's fantastic. If you want to support th...

Re: The Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico
You obviously don't understand how change occurs 12LB. Someone suffers for change. It changes behavior and the way people think and act. I don't buy Shell because they have a better "record" in the Gulf than BP. BP is evil in my eyes because of what lead up to this event, because of the mo...
