Ok, time for a lil bit of size perspective...
In the first picture, I'm laying on top of the wellhead connector housing, acquiring some identifier number off the top cap bolts... Inside where I'm laying, to the right in the picture is a clamp, called a 27 hub clamp. This is used to hold the wellhead connector to the lower double of the BOP's... In the second picture... I am sitting about where I was laying in the first picture, and the 27 hub clamp is what I'm sitting on... This half of a clamp probably weighs in around 600 or so lbs... The stack is also behind me in the second picture, where it had been above me... The connector, which is what the hub clamp is sitting on weighs in around 15000 lbs... The entire stack and upper portion combined weigh in around 380,000 lbs, and I've worked on one BOP stack that weighed in over a million lbs... Suffice it to say I work on some really big iron, and by todays standards, I work on an itty bitty BOP stack... I have 9 working days left and finally I'll be able to get home... oh wait, I have a meeting to attend in Houma La. the day after I get off the rig, so I'll be home sometime Friday...

On a side note, damn i can't wait till those bad ass wheels get onto your ride Robert, from what i remember Mike should have them waiting for you by Friday!
