		<title>My Party Abandoned Me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is why I became a Republican:
I BELIEVE the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person&#8217;s freedom, ability, and opportunity, must be responsibly honored and protected.
I BELIEVE in equal rights, justice, and opportunity for all, regardless of race, religion, creed, sex, age, or disability.
I BELIEVE free enterprise and individual initiative [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Giving you an actual bailout would show that we care.  We don't.  The unsigned blank check represents the fact that not only do we not care, it isn't any of our business to help you.  In fact, since you have lost more money than the value of your company and are thus insolvent, we are placing you in the public domain and the first person to write a check to bail you out owns you.]]></description>

		<title>A Little More About the Republicans</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the last 29 or so years the Republicans have become the party of "family values" and have counted on the religious right for the bulk of their votes.  Well, this is a good strategy for getting votes, but it keeps the party from performing its mission which is supposed to be limited government intervention, lots of personal freedom and an atmosphere that promotes business. ]]></description>

		<title>Oh Woe is Me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Woe is me?  Not really.  It&#8217;s January 2009 and the oilfield has slowed waaaay down.  There is a glut of oil on the market and prices have come down farther than even I thought they would.  People in the oilfield are getting panicky and you would think that there is another bust coming reminiscent of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Future Oilfield</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What does the future of the oilfield hold?  I&#8217;ll tell you, and it is going to be rosy.
First off, just because the world economies are crashing down around our ears, don&#8217;t think the oilfield is going with it.  It isn&#8217;t.  In college economics I learned that &#8220;prices are sticky downwards&#8221; which means that prices go [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tripping Pipe</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The oilfield is a dangerous place.  As I mentioned in an earlier post everything out here is heavy.  If something falls on you, chances are it will weigh hundreds or thousands of pounds, and a hard hat isn&#8217;t going to cut it.  A story today on MSNBC.COM http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26645108/ talks about it.  They mention that there are a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mudloggers do not Chop Down Trees in a Muddy Forest</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A mudlogger positions hydrocarbons with respect to depth.  Oil company geologists are very good at identifying areas in which to drill, and many of these are well known within the industry.  If the earth had been formed evenly, there would be no need for my job since the same hydrocarbon bearing formations would be found [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Camera</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just got a new camera to use for this blog, an Olympus 560 ultra zoom, and thought I would throw up a picture of the moon as an example of what it is capable of.  My newest camera is a Pentax K7 and matching Pentax glass.  I&#8217;ll do a  shot to compare the two sometime.
