If I get a call from the police department saying they have a person who tried to overdose on pills at the local emergency room and they need me to come assess this person for safety, and I tell them I will be there in thirty minutes but don’t actually show up for six hours resulting in the police not being able to respond to a murder down the … Continue reading Just a quick question…
With the lifting of the moratorium, oil rich eyes turn back to the Gulf of Mexico and the inevitable question was asked…will British Petroleum go after the remaining oil in the reservoir and tempt fate once again? BP officials wouldn’t comment on this, choosing to remain silent on their plans, but they are thinking about it. C’mon, you know they are… Back on August 6th, BP’s … Continue reading BP Dares You to Care…Re-drilling?
So, here we are… Almost six months after the Deepwater Horizon exploded and the Macondo Well became a petroleum free for all, the Gulf Coast has become a crazy mix of truths, cautions and hopes, a petri dish, much like the aftermath of Katrina where agendas did battle inside the square circle with the winner this time to be given the British Petroleum Federation belt … Continue reading The Government, The Press and The People…
Last week, a co-worker came into my office and noted that I’m still going on about the BP Gulf oil spill. I don’t share this blog with too many people I know personally, and this co-worker was one of the few I had mentioned it to. Honestly, I wasn’t surprised by her comment but I did ask anyway… “What do you mean?” “Isn’t it kind … Continue reading If a tree falls in the woods, will the media still be there?
I’m a social worker. I’m actually working right now, even as I type this.

Pardon my rant…
Sometimes you need a break… Anti-Flag – The Press Corpse The hidden subtext? Obviously… When the Times-Picayune cherry-picks information, they cease to be reporters. Have a nice day. Continue reading And now, a word from our sponsors…Vol. 16 – American Zombie version
This just in: The White House did in fact, not, hold any information back from the American public. They vehemently deny the conclusions of the Oil Spill Commission, the same commission they created. So much for mea culpa’s from the Obama Administration. So much for regaining lost credibility. Despite their own commission’s evidence to the contrary, Robert Gibbs, White House Spokesman said the White House gave … Continue reading So Much for Apologies…
The National Commission on the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling, in their released draft report, have found that members of Obama’s administration actively blocked the NOAA from releasing worst-case estimates of the amount of oil blowing out of the Macondo Well. The report also cited the infamous oil spill report which reported 75% of the oil was gone as creating a misleading impression … Continue reading In the Gulf: Commission Releases Information and I Don’t Feel Better
My apologies Mr. Feinberg. I have written a number of things up here, laying the blame for the slow payments of reparations firmly at your feet. I questioned your promises. I doubted your ability to do the job. I insinuated you were naive. Sorry. I felt that by promising people they would get their emergency payments in twenty-four hours and businesses inside a week you … Continue reading My bad, I thought the slow payments were Ken’s fault
