    Drill Drill Drill!

    Anyone remember that mantra?

    Is it still alive?

    Just read a news article that said Obama plans to cancel authorization for drilling offshore near Virginia. What do you think?
    This is where an awesome Mark Twain quote would be, but Apolyton says it would be too many lines. :(

    You mean "Drill, baby, drill!"

    And it's still alive, most notably in petro-states like Louisiana. And of course, anywhere Sarah Palin is speaking.

    I think we need to drill a relief well into Sarah Palin's cranium to relieve the pressure on her cerebellum.

    I disagree Guy. That would be a clear case where the nuke option should be the first attempt.

    I still think oil drilling makes sense.

    Oil drilling always makes sense. Depends where you do it and who does it.

    Coming from asher, oil drilling is, of course, a euphemism for anal sex.

    My first love was, indeed, oil drilling. Real oil drilling.

    Drilling in Alaska has been put on hold.

    Given that a large emphasis of the drill, baby, drill motto was an attempt to encourage land drilling in ANWAR in an effort to support her state, I think the motto still relevant.

    Lord knows a land based well can be capped much easier than the offshore nightmare.

    Fact: In Canada, a relief well must be drilled, by law, in the same season as the primary well. Just in case **** like this happens.
