A little levity.....

With all the heavy moments lately and nutty real life oil business shenanigans going on, maybe what we need is a laugh.


If you were an operator in the fictional world of tv and the silver screen,

which of these well control experts would you call on if you had a blowout/fire (Sorry no Chance Buckman).


A. Pinky Noonan (Dallas)

B. Angus "Mac" Macgyver (Macgyver)

C. Forrest Taft (On Deadly Ground)


Give your reasons why/why not. Then I'll pipe in with my choice.

Though I only got the Professor to bite, I'll still give my pick and reasons.


It would never be Macgyver. Way toooooo much bs, like using an old fridge for shielding from the heat. No.


As for Pinky Noonan (who, like Chance Buckman, was fictitiously based on Red Adair) all he did was roll into the jobsite in a pickup truck, kiss some Ewing ass, fiddled with a detonator, and made sure to ask for his check. Didn't get remotely close to the fire.


As much as it pains me to say it, I'd have to pick Forrest Taft, sneakers, dancing naked fat eskimos, ponytail, and all to kill my well. Though I would hope to high heaven that it would bridge before he got there.
