With the power this car is putting down, I'd want all the 'scaffolding' I could get!
How's the tow back coming?

we are still anchored off Cabo Frio, waiting on boat to offload all the extra crap onto...the schedule say we will leave here on the 29th, but there is no way in he'll that's happening, unless we bring all the crap with us and ship it back from Trinidad or from Brownsville...the norm is to have about three to six months to remove stuff, and we are supposed to manage this in ten days... Yeah right...while in the shipyard in Mobile getting ready to go to Egypt, we had an average of almost 200 welders and fitters on the rig everyday, here we have two rig welders, three service welders and two fitters... we can't even gets boats to offload the riser and drill collars...

Land rig work sux... Too easy to quit... Start the truck and you're gone, and out here, I can buy the whole rig dinner and it's easy, on land, you could go broke...they feed us out here... But we have to eat what they serve, I've eaten a lot of PB&Js in my offshore career.

No yours is the one you see out the windshield of this car. It was the only picture I had. We added pop up headlights.
You know, I thought until recently you were a fisherman. I was seeing your profile picture with that fish and you were talking about being out on the rig. Pretty stupid huh?
