    unscheduled tank lift-off

    I got this in an email this morning:

    "Incident happened in a non-ExxonMobil facility in Brazil during a pneumatic test of the tank associated piping. A blind was NOT installed to isolate the piping – only block valves were closed.

    The tank “lifted off” and was found on top of the unit!"

    ground control

    too funny...was tuning up the guitar for some db...can you hear me Major Tom...huh?


    Ground control to Major Tom

    Ground control to Major Tom:


    Take your protein pills and put your helmet on


    ground control to Major Tom:

    Commencing countdown engine's on

    Check ig-nition and may God's love be with you

    This is ground control to Major Tom, you've really made the grade!

    And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear,


    now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare

    This is Major Tom to ground con-trol, I'm stepping through the door

    And I'm floating in the most peculiar way

    and the stars look very different today

    Out here we mostly worry about earthquakes. Once again it would appear that man can duplicate, and trump, any natural disaster. I think I'll check if my car alarm is on now, and my insurance is payed up.
