Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for June 21, 2010

I’ve seen this scenario somewhere…..

Free gear lubricant?

Winky, cleanup on outer hull.

The squeaking wheel gets greased.

Gee, I knew the government could do a better job.

The only thing the government does differently is have someone to blame in place when government screws it up.

Another gov’t contract to the lowest bidder?

They are not going to them (BP) down!

B P oops all over us.

Looks like a premature…release.

In zero-g, why would the oil flow downward? Wouldn’t it just hang there in space until the RUSirius passes through the cloud? And then it would be frozen solid anyhow. OK, I know, that wouldn’t be as funny. Just sayin’.

Better send the captain of the Exxon Valdez to clean it up.

Stock up on the Dawn and commence to scrubbin’ those space squids.

Orgelspieler, the oil rocket is still moving and the oil is streaming behind.

In low pressure, it would tend to boil away.

In zero gravity, the liquids and solids would tend to tend to form a sphere.

Either way, no real problem.
