Ring around the gulf

So does anyone know how to stop the B.P. rig from gushing oil? Probably not. I can't even stop my toilet from leaking, and it isn't a mile under the ocean. Sometimes a fix can be relatively easy, but the conditions may make it impossible. For instance most people can change a light bulb, but put them in a straitjacket and it's not so easy. Repairing an oil rig in over 5,000 feet of water presents more challenges than Charlie Sheen trying to enter the priesthood. That begs the question, why build it there? That makes as much sense as installing a toilet on your ceiling, but at least you'll never have to worry about that dirty ring around the bowl. Ring around the gulf, now that's something to worry about. Maybe the Ty-D-Bol man has a product for that.
