A Whale Arrives in Gulf to Soak up Environmentalists
The world’s largest oil skimmer arrived in the Gulf of Mexico today to begin testing to see if it would be capable of soaking up the massive number of environmentalists who descended upon the spill to make projections.
Choppy seas made testing difficult according to Bob Grantham, a spokesman for Taiwanese shipping firm TMT, so the vessel may have to begin testing in other areas where an overabundance of environmentalists have wrought havoc, such as the Galapagos Islands or Seattle. Read more...

Frustrated, running out of ideas, facing a deadline and already past the $75 million cap on costs relating to the big spill, BP presented its last shot at cleaning up the Gulf: Swab up the oil with a pair of old pants.
