A tow of barges loaded with crude oil hit the old HWY 80 bridge crossing the Mississippi at Vicksburg last night around nine oclock. They caught fire and broke loose from the tow boat. As they headed down river the tow broke apart further and now theres 4 to 5 separate fires on the river.

Glad nobody was apparently hurt. Now I suppose there'll be a new spike in gas prices. ;)

That's a shame but it is undoubtedly **** Cheney's fault. He want's to drive up the price of oil so he can make more obcene profits, that Hillary, in the best tradition of Hugo Chavez, can appropriate to help make her socialist utopia.:p
