Dang I was suppose to be going there this month.

[Bada$$Bullet]

Figured it was just a matter of time before it got there.

[bayoubullet]

how much worse will it get before it is capped ?

[timmaahh12]

My boss is there right now!

But seriously, that sucks..

[Alan S]

I've got reservations for July. Won't bother me too much if we can't go. I hate the beach anyway.

If ya'll think that's bad, wait till a storm hits it...

If a storm hits and scatters the oil everywhere, do we all get royality checks?

[Cooney]

I don't think it works like that, but we can sue them...

BP is definatley going to be filling bankruptcy after all of this so the only thing we will be gettin out of it is the opportunity to buy some cheap stock, and our state is going to be left in the crapper.

Can they cover this and the fiasco that happened in Texas City?

[Alan S]

BP has insurance, plus money.

Yep and if they don't, they will cry to Washington and get a handout from the government.

there's boom all across the beach where I live now... but we don't have any oil yet. It's precaution. and BTW they are killin the sal trout by the beach. There's an old man that goes every morning and is catching 5-8 4 pounders

[DLAB]

just got back and Caught a limit of Red Snapper, it was 6 of us so we kept 12, Then we caught some trigger fish, and Mango Snapper, great time. Our Capt. was a pissed off Rebel over some of the closures and he took us into closed waters! We moved 3 times cause a coast gaurd boat kept turnin towards us! It was pretty sad though cause we were only 10-15 miles out and had oil splotches the size of LILY Pads all around us, Had to keep sprayin the reels off to keep the line clean On the way back the guide got a call that today was the last day, They are shutting off all the fishing in this area..... Needless to say he was PISSED Thats my update from ORANGE BEACH Al, this is one F#$%ed up situation!

[SUSHII]

devastating very devastating
