The rest of the country would miss our wildlife if it were gone. Sure, you make fun of our accent, our sweet tea, our lifestyles etc.. yet when there aren't delicious gulf shrimp being shipped to your favorite restaurant..you're gonna miss it!

I received a list of items for donation. Right now is needed: nylons, pantyhose, feathers, goosedown blankets and hair to make booms to absorb the oil. In the coming days will be a need for many more items such as: BLEACH, Dawn dishwashing liquid, chemical-proof rubber gloves, heavy duty storage boxes and bags, paper towels and counter dispensers, metal garbage cans to store grain, WD40, wire and bolt cutters to remove hooks, 5 gal buckets, heavy duty flashlights, zip ties, heavy dute rakes..the list goes on!

"BP has established a new Vessel of Opportunity line for those wishing to offer their vessels for service. Those wishing to help should send the following information to HorizonSupport@OEGLLC.com or call 281-338-5511:Contact Name, Location, Company, Boat Owner, # of Boats, Horsepower, Length, Draft, Extra Information" (from Oiled Wildlife Rescue volunteers facebook message)

FReep mail me if you have items to donate, but don’t know where to send them.... I’ll find out where to send or you can ship them to me. Currently there are no donation drop off locations listed, just what is needed.

What hacks me off is that BP is a bastion of uber-liberal stupidity. My father just retired from BP, and the level of liberal BS they pimp is insane.

Like all liberals, they are only liberal insofar as it requires something of someone else and not themselves. Now BP has given 0bama the excuse to stop the expansion of offshore drilling, shut down current drilling and wreck the Gulf Coast’s ecology and economy.

It’s not a conspiracy, it’s just the natural result of liberal philosophy. The gubment is responsible, so I don’t have to be.
