By comparison to the plague of yankees who have descended on us drilling is purely benign yet tourism is considered clean industry. MY beaches are now covered by northern condo filth to the extent that I cannot even see the beach along highway 98 in Panama City and Destin. Along MY barrier islands I have been threatened by idjit snowbirds who think they actually own the beach in front of their trashy stilt homes ruining MY dunes. The salt marshes that produce most of food in the coastal food chain that have been filled for building apartments will NEVER come back. By comparison, Prince William Sound is almost the same as it was before Exxon Valdez. Yet, we are not even talking about oil spills here, THIS IS GAS DRILLING, NOT OIL. Any conceivable accident from gas drilling is insignificant to that done each week by the tourist industry. Fishing boats from NW FL go to the waters of Alabama and LA because they have better fishing BECAUSE of the oil industry. The drilling rigs provide habitat for fish. Local politicians here in N. FL pandering to the fears of foolish liberals tell us that tourism provides jobs but all they provide is minimum wage seasonable jobs. The gas industry provides very high wage permanent jobs. Given a choice between being a cashier at a Panama City Hot Dog Stand for $6.00/hr or a welder offshore, which would you choose? Careful, you'll become the eighteenth dwarf. But, you'll be welcome. "round hear, we draw the line at 2nd cuzins but I got lucky an' married a yankee who likes what I like ('cept she doesnt like greens). My yank in-laws would be ok if they'd just learn to cook. |

For the past couple years, I been setting gullible people like HK straight, "Dukes of Hazzard" was NOT a documentary. Stop believing everything Hollywood says.

Tabasco is great, either in cooking or as a condiment, but sometimes it can over power a delicate flavor, such as fish. At those times (and only at those times) is Crystal the preferred hot sauce.
