The wind blows alot out on the ocean, it's a good place to put them.

Just so y'all know, those pics are not mine. I just found them online while I was at work.

I got to see one of those Coast Guard copters up close when it landed at our company heli-pad for repairs. Those are sooooooo bad ass.

It's a bit unnerving to be 100 miles out in the Gulf and watch the Captain sink the boat.
