A few readers have noted that another gulf oil rig has exploded. This one is off the coast of Lousiana. So far all the workers are accounted for, but they are in immersion suits waiting for rescue.

I wonder if BP execs will give themselves a bonus.
"Hey! It wasn't one of ours!" bonus.

So... how exactly are the Feuding Teutels going to be of any use? Will Vinnie fix the oil rig? Will Mikey bake the rescued workers some special brownies?

It's very likely. But never forget that they are merely the pawns of the Psi Corps.

so you don't fund chavez in venezuela, salafists and wahhabi fundamentalism via saudi arabia, the destruction of our environment, lowered air quality, etc
you are part of the problem, every time you pull into a gas station. policy change on a national level is only half the solution. the other part of the solution is a personal decision all of us have to make to do what is right
don't let your next car be fueled by gasoline, for the sake of national security, and your environment. since militant muslim fundamentalism and petrodollar socialism is something that bothers the right, and environmental destruction and poor air quality something that bothers the left, then surely, this is something that both the left, and the right, can agree on, for once
imagine that: a monumental personal decision that both bush haters and obama haters can agree on
no. more. gasoline. cars
for the sake of your country
Lousiana, Louisiana, what's the diff? (Score:2, Funny)
Lousiana in the summary, Louisiana for real. Sorry had to nitpick but c'mon there are only 50 states you would think all U.S. residents would know how to spell them! Or was this outsourced to India too?

That's a strange choice of phrase considering you're knocking the one area of the country where under 25% of people own cars, compared to 92% nationwide.

I don't know about your keyboard, but mine has the main body of the keyboard painstakingly shaped from the horn of a rhinoceros.
The keys carved from ivory obtained by hunting elephants for their tusks.
The ink to label the tops of the keys comes from finely dicing baby octopuses then running them through a centrifuge.
The springiness of the keys is particularly effective, to get the proper resistance for each key the sinews of baby seals is used.

You and your misleading statistics. Car ownership is only that low because the other 67% own helicopters.
