Here's a rumour that I haven't heard yet:
BP feels that due to the huge loss of livelihoods along the coast line that it is the right thing to do - to relocate their global headquarters to the worst hit coastal community to help replace the lost jobs... BP executives feel that they should literally live with their consequences...
This is not an excerpt.
I seriously doubt the rumor but the oil will be gone soon. While prices are down, why not take advantage of the good deals?
It’d be a stupid rumor, if you had heard it.
Additionally, I might not have heard that they are going to revive an old ESSO slogan; “Put A Tiger In Your Tank” but instead say Put a Fish in Your Tank.
They might also not be saying: “Powered by Fish Oil” anytime soon.
Or changing their name to BP - Blowout Preventors.
Anyone care to try a re-write suitable to the times?... :-)
Beverly Hillbillies Theme Song
Come and listen to a story about a man named Jed
A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed
Then one day he was shootin at some food
And up through the ground came a bubblin’ crude.
Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.
Well the first thing you know ol’ Jed’s a millionaire,
Kinfolk said Jed move away from there.
Said Californy is the place you ought to be;
So they loaded up the truck and moved to Beverly.
Hills, that is Swimmin pools, movie stars.
The Beverly Hillbillies!
Well now its time to say good-bye to Jed and all his kin.
And they would like to thank you folks fer kindly droppin in.
You’re all invited back again to this locality
To have a heapin helpin of their hospitality
Of course, they have proven credibility...
BP plans deep-water drilling off Libya
“BP maintains it was “not involved in any discussions with the UK government or the Scottish government about the release of Mr al-Megrahi”
