The reason people are being paid so much to go out there is because its toxic to breathe the fumes and no doubt people out there will have breathing probs when they 60... but setting stuff on fire is fun!

I know someone who's dad worked on a rig there.
I saw some msnbc report earlier this morning about the setting it on fire stuff. She was out there with no mask saying how it was no salty air smell at all. It was all just ths sickly smell of oil and I was thinking, you freaking idiot put on a paper mask then.
Now they're saying that smell is creeping over New Orleans.. nasty..
