That Oil Leak thingy.....

May 31 2010

I refuse to swim in Melbourne's bay, because I look at all the waterways feeding into it, giant ships using it and the itty bitty outlet to the ocean and figure whatever pollution is going in is taking a long time to go out. I lived 200m from the beach for 3 years here and visited it maybe twice - (the rash is clearing up, thanks)! I've been spoilt by beaches in Perth and become some sort of E Coli hating prima donna - don't hate me bayside Melbourners, it's just the way it is!! . Anyway - I look at the poor people in Florida, and sorrounds, and can't help but feel for them - not only do they live in America (and are therefore sorrounded by American people and fried everything), but they probably had nice beaches once too... but now some dumb arse oil company has broken the tap and can't work out how to stop it. And everytime they come up with a plan I laugh out loud - because it's more ridiculous than their last. If I hear the words Strike Force one more time I'm going to be sick. . What I'm wondering... is where the fuck is Flipper when you really need him? From what I've seen, he's pretty smart - are people choosing not to involve him, or was all that stuff he used to do on tele just pretend?

I thnk they need to call McGuiver or Mr T.... even some kind of a plumber would be a decent start. Seriously. How about they get some gaffa tape and plug it up with a giant tampon made out of Barbara Walters, and the rest of the members of the View .. oh and throw in Judge Judy and that other mid day tv show dickhead, Dr Phil. Strangely, I had a pair of tight little shorts just like Bud. Hugs Stalky

Quoting 'mikle' Its the top of the pipe that busted... weld a fookin cap on it? I don't think they make welding helmets for dolphins - that'd be why Flipper can't help. Wonder if Aqua Man is still around....

Now would be a really handy time for Tampax (or similar) to come to the table and offer a solution... Or else I'm remembering that episode of the Simpsons when Homer's fat gut plugged up a nuclear reactor. Perhaps we can supersize the concept and subcontract the marshmallow man from Ghostbusters? Hmmmmm... where the hell is Captain Planet when we need him?!

Totally scandalous. Its has been more than a month, 100 millions of leakage and dozens of SWAT teams deployed, and no one seems to be able to do anything!? There is a petition going on for the US government to seize and freeze BP assets, and place those funds in trust to begin providing relief to the people throughout the Gulf whose jobs,homes and businesses are completely wiped out by the disaster. Doubt anything will come out of it. I am so boycotting BP.

Quoting 'MissBJ'but Flipper is dead.http://www.facebook.com/#!/album.php?aid=17534&id=119101198107726&ref=mfThis is a catastrophe on a grand scale....JMO...BJxxx Thanks Miss BJ - If I'm going to get bad news, I like your "rip it off like a bandaid" approach. It also explains why that leak hasn't been plugged. . We're clearly screwed - BP have a heap of guys looking into the water scratching their nuts like a bunch of bogans under the hood of a fully sick Commondore in the Maccas car-park (and not much else), Flippers dead and Skippy can't swim (or more importantly... dive). I'm all out of ideas *shrug*

they seem to have some good ideas.........:) Children Writing About the Ocean... Hysterical! 1 ) - This is a picture of an octopus. It has eight testicles. (Kelly, age 6)2) - Oysters' balls are called pearls. (Jerry, age 6)3) - If you are surrounded by ocean, you are an island. If you don't have ocean all round you, you are incontinent. (Alex, age 7)4) - Sharks are ugly and mean, and have big teeth, just like Emily Richardson. She's not my friend any more. (Kylie, age 6)5) - A dolphin breaths through an asshole on the top of its head. (Billy, age 8)6) - My uncle goes out in his boat with 2 other men and a woman and pots and comes back with crabs. (Millie, age 6)7) - When ships had sails, they used to use the trade winds to cross the ocean. Sometimes when the wind didn't blow the sailors would whistle to make the wind come. My brother said they would have been better off eating beans. (William, age 7)8) - Mermaids live in the ocean. I like mermaids. They are beautiful and I like their shiny tails, but how on earth do mermaids get pregnant? Like, really? (Helen, age 6)9) - I'm not going to write about the ocean. My baby brother is always crying, my Dad keeps yelling at my Mom, and my big sister just got pregnant, so I can't think what to write. (Amy, age 6)10) - Some fish are dangerous. Jelly fish can sting Electric eels can give you a shock. They have to live in caves under the sea where I think they have to plug themselves into chargers. (Christopher, age 7)11) - When you go swimming in the ocean, it is very cold, and it makes my willy small. (Kevin, age 6)12) - Divers have to be safe when they go under the water. Divers can't go down alone, so they have to go down on each other. (Becky, age 8)13) - On vacation my Mom went water skiing. She fell off when she was going very fast. She says she won't do it again because water fired right up her big fat ass. (Julie, age 7)14) - The ocean is made up of water and fish. Why the fish don't drown I don't know. (Bobby, age 6)15) - My dad was a sailor on the ocean. He knows all about the ocean. What he doesn't know is why he quit being a sailor and married my mom. (James, age 7)
