BP enginner on what the crew plans to do once the well survives the final pressure test:

“We’re going to have a good meal together — prime rib.”

It’s a lot to expect your engineers to be a little PR savvy, but, come on guys… you couldn’t maybe say you were going for, like, shrimp or yellowfin. Do you know how good yellowfin is?!

Glenn Beck: Mac Fanboy

Rush Limbaugh is also a Mac fan. Huge Mac fan.
