Don't you think the ultra rich fat cats who own these oil wells would have had numerous plans already in place in the event of a catastrophe like this?  I mean  Come On! Its a shame that  the 4 or 5 states along the Gulf Coast  did not have a backup plan with the number of oil wells off their coast. Now they pay the ultimate price for being stupid. The blame game starts. Also   why have they not been laying down barriers night and day along the entire coast  before...READ POST.

Dear Sports Fanatics.......Now that you have had  time to chill from your victory  or defeat  .  its time to take a step back and look at the big picture....I have learned over the years   thru many great wins  and  numerous  ugly losses  that the NFL does not send me a check  or cash for the effort.... .I have no stock in my  Steelers ...There are no pension checks  coming in the mail .  I have never...READ POST.

That applies  here  Big Time.Thanks to the SHA  and our tax dollars..... for getting the Rt 90 bride up and running  ahead of schedule.  Even with a nor-easter  hurricane after effects event  in the middle of the redo!I am guessing they figured a deadline of Thanksgiving  but played it safe  and said Christmas .

Well   we are 2 weeks into the Rt90 bridge  closure ... They  ( whoever they is? )  said it would be a 8 week closure    or that it would be opened by Christmas..   Lets hope sooner than later  and the weather may play a big part of it.  I know that many businesses in mid-town OC  are really hurting.  I live in the middle of Bville and I really have to plan my days before I venture out.  There have been a few days  where I just...READ POST.

I guess one day  I will break down and buy the $400 dollar weathered look  HD leather jacket...  the $200 buffed out steel toe satin black boots.....  the  $150 clam shell helmet  to keep my brain intact and   sell the house to get me the latest $25,000 chopper ....flip off the world and saddle me up a bikerbitch  and cruise with the hombres to the next wet t-shirt event.  By then...  my hearing won't be that great anyway.... and I can survive...READ POST.
