On second thought, life is actually GOOD! . . .

Mark just called to let me know that when I hear about Hercules Rig 265 blowing up from a natural gas explosion, that it is NOT his (251) rig.  Thank goodness he called -- I'm absolutely certain that I wouldn't have remembered his rig number and since that rig is very near where his rig was before they moved it a few days back I would have been terrified!  Whew! 

I told him he better send his sister and everyone else a note about it, too, because anyone hearing about a Hercules Rig blowing up is GOING to be concerned! 

Oh, there's already an article from the Houston news

Fortunately, though, no one was hurt.  They all managed to get off the rig and were rescued by a boat and brought in to shore.  Mark said they are probably missing a LOT of car keys (LOL), but hey . . . at least no one is hurt.  LIFE IS GOOD!  (And now I feel really chintzy about my complaints about MY job earlier today!  I'd hate to think this might have been a lesson to me!)
