yes, tony himself will be at the helm.
as for texans working july 4th, do you really, really think they shut down the entire GOM oil industry for a holiday? seriously? ever hear of people working through holidays, to earn a little more cash? happens all the time. especially in this economy.
you think safety agencies would allow oil rigs to be totally abandoned so people can go toss back their suds and play with fireworks?
if we've waited this long, i'm sure tony won't mind paying time and a half for a day's work. money well spent.
you think we'd see a weather window, after months of delays, and miss it because someone wants to go bbq some hotlinks?
LOL
