Six Sentences: What Can You Say in Six Sentences?

UPDATE: Read about the Six Sentences Submission Fiasco HERE.

I've been following a writing blog called Six Sentences for a while now. It's a pretty simple premise- write down whatever you want in six sentences or less, submit it, and see if they publish your work. I like to read what people write and find it a refreshing break during the day.

BP Oil Spill Sleight-of-Hand?

Is it me or has any one else noticed the flurry of news stories lately about the miraculous vanishing BP Gulf Oil spill? Seems like plenty of scientists have come out and announced the majority of the oil spilled in the Gulf by BP is mysteriously gone! That's right disappeared.

According to a Bloomberg article posted on August 4, a US Government report says 74 percent of the oil is no longer in the water. Amazing, considering an estimated 4.9 million barrels of the gooey substance leaked into the water. What's even more remarkable is the speed of the study. Heck, the government couldn't even tell us how much oil was being released during the disaster but they sure are quick to point out how much of it is gone literally days after the well was capped.

Hmmm...... I know bullshit when I see it.
