OIL SLICK THREATENS FLORIDA!

And now it's raining oil in Louisiana.This is being disputed, but a guy has the video evidence - so you decide. The dispersants being used could possibly make it happen, but weather experts are saying no such thing as oily rain. Bottom line is that things are only getting worse in the gulf, and the rest of Florida is next. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/06/23/raining-oil-in-louisiana_n_622815.html

It looks like the Obamas are going to vacation in Florida the weekend of August 14th and then spend 10 days on Martha's Vineyard (again). I wish they'd switch that so they're on the Vineyard while I'm off at Fenway Park on Aug 14th to see Aerosmith and J Geils Band. :radio:

It's a rumor, ...but I heard that the obama's family dog will get his own air transport for the vacation.I hope it's only that. A rumor.BUT.....with Speaker Nancy P. using Military aircraft for herself, and her family, it is possible.

Oh Crap! Let us know how things went. Hope all is well.
No big deal - all is OK for now (of course' date=' the hurricane season is far from over). I'm about 180 miles north of Miami, and we got rain and minor wind. [i']Halted Oil Cleanup Met With Caution, Some Frustration as Bonnie Unlikely to Strengthen
The center of Bonnie came ashore Friday near Cutler Bay, about 20 miles south of Miami. It moved into the eastern Gulf and was about 215 miles east-southeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River at 8 a.m. EDT Saturday.
