Gulf of Mexico - (UpStream Mess): Cruise met delays on Saturday during a delay to hoisting the 10-ton blowhard preventer that failed to avert disaster headlines from spewing out of the Gulf of Mexico.
Orders from on high not to damage or drop a vital piece of evidence were met with incomprehension.
A device 'about 500 feet from the surface' resisted being hoisted onto the Helix Q4000 vessel deck until sunset.
This sent the captian bonkers as pissed off Cruise hunkered down to wait for icy hydrates to melt from the contraption before it became winchable.
Coastguards radio reported that FBI agents are on board waiting to take possession the evidence before it is taken to a NASA facility in Michoud, La, for shredding - er...analysis!
WTF?
