The same right-wing whack jobs,

whose mantra has been, 'Drill, baby, drill', now are blaming the Dems for not fixing their mess, IMMEDIATELY, Sorta like the economy Bush wrecked. WHAT? You can't fix our mess overnight? Unbelievable, but typical, for their ilk. And the sheep eat it up....

Did you read that Kevin Costner has invested 15 years and about 24 million dollars in way of sifting oil spills that he began working on while making the film Waterworld released in 1995. It's a centrifugal oil separator. It's like a big vacuum cleaner, which sits on a barge and sucks up oily water and spins it around at a high speed. On one side, it spits out pure oil, which can be recovered and the other side spits out 99 percent pure water. If it goes according to plan there could be as many as 26 machines out in the gulf. The largest is 112 inches high, weighes 2 1/2 tons and cleans 210,000 gallons a day of oily water. Now they just have to figure out where to position the first 11 machines.

Sounds great, BUT, from what I've heard, the 26 machines would be just a small drop in the bucket. Better than nothing, for sure, and it would be good to test the technology, but the scope of the problem is HUGE.

Anything is better than what is going on now. It's like putting a straw in a volcano!

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
