Apology Readiness Plan
Dear BP,
I would like to apologize for not sharing my hurricane readiness plan with you. You see, everyone who runs a business or who lives on the Gulf Coast, has a hurricane readiness plan. Businesses have specific plans for protecting office equipment, automobiles, windows, etc. Residents have their personal plans, with evacuation lists that assure things like treasured photos and grandmother’s silver tea service are carefully packed and loaded in the family vehicles when the evacuation order is announced. We have a plan for our animals (dogs, cats, fish, WALRUSES, etc.) in order to prevent death or injury to our beloved pets. Apparently multi-billion dollar oil companies who drill in deep waters off our once-pristine beaches have no such plans. Forgive me for assuming a multi-billion dollar corporation would have a plan for hurricane preparedness when they drill in the waters that are repeatedly assaulted by deadly tropical storms. My bad!!!
