My Gulf Oil Spill Photos
I finally got around to posting some of the BP oil spill photos I have taken over the past 90+ days. I Have flown over the spill site numerous times and spent a good bit of time on the beach. and have been told i cant go to the beach in some spots by law enforcement under BP orders.
Flight with The Blue Angels “Fat Albert”!!!
Sometimes due to my job i get to do some really cool stuff, and this ranks up at the top of the really really cool meter. Two of my co-workers in the past have flown in the Blue Angels Jets but I am 100% sure that is something I could not handle. The Blue Angels Fat Albert is like a roller coaster ride on steroids and despite the size of Fat Albert, for me it pulls more than enough G's. There are several times during the flight where you are completely weightless.
Clouds of Underwater Oil In Mobile Bay
My first thought when seeing this is this just your normal muddy Mobile Bay water in a mixing zone.. I have lived on the Gulf Coast and Mobile Bay for 36 years and this just did not look right to me.. I noticed anywhere this stuff was there was a rainbow sheen with it. Where this stuff was not there was no rainbow sheen. Thanks to BP's use of Dispersants Corexit Oil that should normally be floating on the surface can now flow directly under booms and easily penetrate supposed protected areas.
Now Really is Orange Beach Alabama
This Video is a result of BP's use of Dispersants ( Corexit ) funny name becuase it sounds like corects it. but no it really just screws it up.. Naturally oil floats on water. But BP's PR campaign to hide everything has made it impossible to tell where a vast majority of the leaked oil is. And I have seen on numerous occasions oil just mixed in with the water come onshore.
Goin’ Mobile
Are Mobile homes named because they can be moved from place to place?? No!!! Our language is full of terms that misleadingly suggest geographic origins for common products. Panama hats weren't made in Panama, French fries didn't originate in France, India ink didn't come from India, and German chocolate cake was named after a person, not the country. Far rarer is the reverse case, when a product's name does indeed reflect a geographic origin.
