Comment by Kurt Hughes on October 27, 2012 at 10:18am I was told by my Brother in Midland that the boom around the area is playing out, is that true. I'm down here in Bastrop and all the rigs are hiring out of the main office and everything is on hold till after Obama is gone. Can't wait. The article in Drilling Ahead by Curtis is right on time, to the point and concise. Good Job Amigo!!
Comment by Kurt Hughes on October 27, 2012 at 10:09am Broke out in 1968 for FWA, the Free Wheeling Assholes, out of Odessa and driving down to Shefield every evening. Those where the days of pennies for a gallon of gas. Speaking of which my cousin posted an article of facebook which has a picture of a little old lady stating "Four years ago a gallon of gas was $1.86, now its $5.00 and you say the economy is better Mr. President. Well, I may be old, but I'm not stupid!!"

LOL Not sure this could go on my resume...one of my ex's was a consultant for Devon. My brother has(looking for work) worked for Sendero, Nabors, Felderhoff. My dad worked for Haliburton. So I guess the Oilfield is "who we are"
.... then there's the never ending love for the Roughneck... just sayin
