second day, rescue endangered species and find an antique automobile..

On average 25 species go extinct every day. With or without mans help. It's how the world works. (It's called evolution).. Just go for the antique automobile... anything without a chip in it...:clap:

Found this on another forum. This is from somebody who was there fishing just before the rig blew.

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I Just spoke with a buddy that works for Chevron in Pgoula. He said him and a couple guys ran out yesterday for giggles to check things out. From what he said he really feels this has been way overexagerated. Never seen any heavy crude just some gray soupy stuff. Said it wouldnt even stick to the boats. I hope he is right. We shall see.

you know I was just starting to get that feeling this morning watching the news....the story was about the only TWO birds that they have found with oil on them and cleaned up and released over in Vero Beach on the atlantic side.....hope it turns out that way....keep our fingers crossed

BP had a meeting here today and was offering $1200 dollars a day + fuel for boats to help with the cleanup. i was thinking about working for them for 10 days, then tossing them the keys & the title and going boat shopping. i don't know whats the scariest, the oil coming from the gulf , the lawyers from all over, or the feds.

Sounds like I need to come north and go to work.

LOL I have a 22' Cruisers that I'm about to scrap out with a sweet 200 Merc on it. The boat's still very seaworthy.. If I was retired I'd be signing up tomorrow morning.. but, alas, I'm still working...so it's a nice dream but that's all it is for me.

And yes, I'm also tired of seeing the same few oil covered birds over and over. I wonder how long it will be before the news companies start covering birds with oil so they can "report" about their plight.. :cen: :cen: :cen:
