    @DMW- That ticket could represent many deals...Pounding doubles at that rate yields an outcome of its own while a business deal would suggest a split.
    But if corporate $$ I would up the bourbon selection next go round.  FWIW-
    My corporate card does not reimburse alchohol.  You guys with corporate accounts that do are lucky.
    My company permits it. Had a guy one time use his company card for cocaine and strippers (for real) then he couldn't understand why he was terminated.
    I bet he sold the job though. 
    Did the receipt REALLY say HOOKERS AND BLOW? I call BS. Even hookers know to have a shell company.
    Probably paid cash, dealers don't like CC fees.  Then was honest on his personal reimbursement.  Honesty is not appreciated these days.
    Poor guy... 
    That might be the funniest picture ever posted on here.

    Bum deal!  Things like that seem to happen to me just when I think I'm getting ahead.

    Better to take care of this now rather than in another month or two when it starts getting hot here.

    That's like $10/lb their price, 15/lb if you bought it, and $20/lb (rough guess) on what they charge you in materials.

    owch. 

    This is the reason I do my own refrigeration.  Even though I break even in the long run, I have lots of cool gear.

    ROV going in.

    Looks like a ROV coming out, not going in.  Sexier going in though, so It's all good, brother Scottie!

    There are a couple of different kind of Mud Mats. A line Mat sits over an existing pipe line so you can lay another pipe line across it without damaging either line. 
    A umbilcal Mat (as pictured above) is a tie in Point for your umbilicals and flexibles. Think of it as a transfer station and control center. It controls your air, hydraulics, electrical and whatever ever else you may have in your umbilicals and/or flexibles.

    Here is a pic (although not a real good one) of a line Mat.
