What do you get when you cross a loaded semi with a $2,000,000 logging truck driven by an East Indian who's spending his first year working the oil patch driving on ice roads in the-middle-of-fucking-nowhere oilsands Alberta?



You get a fucking mash-up!  



This happened about 2:30 this afternoon.  



The tools on the back of that 1-ton are worth $2 million and change, but they didn't think there was any damage to them.

All I can tell from my monitor they look like perf gun tubes. Not saying thats what they are or not, but damn if I ever seen Halliburton or Horizontal running around with the expensive shit just hanging out on the back of a pickup.

Well, if I were carrying 2 million in the bed of my truck, I think I would secure it better than that. At least on lumber racks.

You're probably right. Unless perhaps they were just moving them a (very) short distance.

perf guns have a spiral set of holes for the explosives and it doesn't look like a lubricator either.

Sucks to be you.  



All I have to say is FUCK FORT MCMURRAY.



Why people live in this city, I'll never understand.  Mobile homes go for $400K, traffic is fucked, there is construction everywhere.  Oh, and watch out for the bums that threaten to stab you with a used needle full of AIDS blood....Yeah, stay classy Fort Mac bums.



I'm not kidding when I say this, but Fort McMurray is the asshole of Alberta.  Unfortunately, it's also where all of the $$$$ is too....



Expect 32 degree weather during the day and just below freezing at night.  No major other concerns, really, just bring lot's of pain killer because your going to need it.

They drop those tubes downhole to measure things like porosity, permeability, oil, radiation, water content, electrical activity, hole size, etc...



It's big money stuff, even for the oil patch.

Never been to Surrey eh?

 






From my time living there I would say 90% of the people you visibly see in the city are East Indian...







Wikipedia disagrees with my observations:






















The predominant religion in Surrey is Christianity. More than 60% of people in Surrey are Christian. The next largest religious group of people in Surrey are Sikh. There are approximately 19.2% Sikhs in Surrey, with the majority being in the Newton area of Surrey which is home to nearly 50,000 Sikhs.








As of 2006, the population of Surrey is 394,976, a 13.6% increase from 2001. The non-minorities population is 211,445, or 53.9% of the city's population. The foreign-born population is 150,235, constituting 30.3% of the city's population. Visible minorities number 181,005, or 46.1% of the population, while Aboriginal people constitute 1.9% of the population.[url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrey,_British_Columbia#cite_note-StatCan-3][4][/url]
