Offshore oil and gas exploration

This morning I was printing the 2 online articles I have to read before writing my comparative media analysis on offshore oil and gas exploration. Well the first article is 82 pages and the 2nd one I have an option of reading a 121 page report or 51 pages... so I decided to read the 51 page report as any smart student would do.

To add to the headache of reading all that, as I was printing, the ink on the papers wouldn't dry!! So during the whole printing process I had to lay out all the pages right after it was printed... it's like babysitting a printer.

So the first article is "Oil and Water Don't Mix" written by an environmentalist. 2nd one is "British Columbia Offshore Hydrocarbon Development", a government report. Two conflicting parties... why can't we all just get along so then I wouldn't have to do all this reading??

you should have printed the papers in "econo mode" so they wouldn't have used as much ink, then you wouldn't have had as much of a problem.

I did do it on econ mode.... problem lies within the ink. I had it refilled at work but the supplier failed to put enough alcohol in the ink like Canon.

bitch bitch bitch...you gotta lighten up Jay. The ink will dry eventually....you gotta have that kind of cup half-full mentality...this coming from the most sincere optimist you know.

Beata an optimist? You drive for a while and I'll shovel :P

She makes a very good point though; gotta just go with the flow. It's all in how you see things, my man ;)
