More pictures have been posted of the mystery packages near the oil leak. All pictures are available here:

I even have screen shots disproving that rampant theory of flames shooting out of the BOP. ;o)
I'll continue to take screen captures in the hopes of finding that one specific identifying piece that we need.
I really would love to hear some theories about these packages - what do you think they are?
If you couldn't care less about the leak or these packages or the 4000 ft of pipe and hose......
In the latest batch of pictures - I've also included a lot of pics of the fish (AND SQUID!!) that were viewable on the ROV's trip back to the bottom. The ROV operators were clearly enjoying the show as well. They stopped several times - they turned the lights off, waited 30 seconds or so and would turn them back on...and there'd be just tons of fish! The best was when the squid came over to inspect the ROV - they did the light thing again and they got a great screen capture of the squid freaking out (they stopped the cam for a brief second). I sadly, did not get that shot - in my excitement, I hit something the flipped my screen sideways. :o( I did get shots before hand and caught another squid later on. It made me feel good to know that humans who liked fish are operating the ROV - so maybe there is hope after all!! :o)
But really....you SHOULD be caring about what's happening with this leak. It's not going to get better any time soon :o( (and it just may get a LOT worse!)

BP OIl - Mystery Packages on the seabed
Around 4 am, the Canyon Offshore TXLS-09 cam started showing us 10 mysteriously wrapped packages attached to a line of some sort. Following the line from right to left - it begins under the seabed, goes up in an arc, comes down and into the seabed and then the line heads up toward the surface.
This afternoon, the Canyon Offshore V-01 cam spent quite a bit of time going up and down the line. It really seemed interested in the 5th package (counting left to right). It also focused on the area between #4 and #5 and then between #5 & #6.
The straps binding the covering have "Made in USA" written on them. One strap, I believe on #7, says "L 6,000 LB". These straps all have metal buckles and are cinched tightly over the canvas - which look to also have zippers on them. The packages are different shapes and a few look to contain something yellow.
You can find screen captures here:

Pictures will continue to be added as the cams revisit the area.
Pictures showing 3 wide are from early morning - and the Canyon cam is the last one.
Pictures showing 2 wide were taken this afternoon - the V-01 cam is the bottom left one.

Connecting the dots....
My brain is reaching it's melting point...there is so much going on around the world that I can't process it anymore. I'm just gonna list the current things on my radar. I don't have any answers or theories, I just know that something is going on, and it's NOT good!
What do these people know that we don't?

The Middle East is a powder keg...and it looks like at least two matches have been lit.
Israel and the Turkish aid Flotilla, Israel - media blackout on all US protests of the event....even after CNN covered the one on Times Square live. Within an hour, they removed all articles on the event. Only ONE article is to be found: Hundreds protest in Times Sq. after Israeli attack
Turkey isn't giving up and another flotilla is on it's way to Gaza. This is putting the US in a very precarious position. We're friend with both sides - with 2 wars underway, we NEED our Turkish bases and we NEED our Israeli "friends".
Now Israel positioning submarines around Iran and Iran is NOT happy!
Al JazeeraIran warns Israel against deploying subs - Press TV
Israel sends nuclear missile equipped submarines to Iran - Ya Libnan
Prison Planet.com
Iran backs the Palestinians - Turkey is backing the Palestinians - Israel is fighting with Turkey - Israel is ready to fight Iran. Israel is also known to bomb Lebanon to get Hamas.
The US has been upping anti-Iranian propaganda for the last year - same script as Afghanistan and Iraq...substituting Nuclear Weapons for Al-Queda.
Fighting & bombing is increasing in Afghanistan and Iraq. The US has quietly added Pakistan areas into the war - one offensive attack at a time. We've also quietly switched from fighting Al Queda to fighting the Taliban.
On the home front - for all intents and purposes our country is bankrupt. Everything that's happening is nothing but smoke and mirrors to keep people from realizing just how in trouble we are.
The international bankers are scrambling to keep the entire planetary economy from crashing. I think they under estimated the cascading effect of destroying the US economy...they should have started smaller. The good news is that once everything finally collapses - the only way to go is up! So just let it all go and let's start rebuilding rather than keep trying to plug the leaks. I'm personally hoping for one more increase of the stock market, so I can cash out my 401k's. I really regret not doing it last month when I thought about it. :o(
But mark my words - the economy IS going to fail. Money will become all but worthless. If you've got it - spend it now. Stock up your house with necessities and non-perishable food while it's still affordable. Worst case scenario - I'm wrong and you'll not have to buy TP or canned produce for a while.
If you like fish - get it while you still can. Anything normally stocked from the Gulf is gone. Replacements from the rest of the world will jump in price soon. How long it takes BP to stop the flow, will determine how many years before fishing can recover and how wide spread the effects will be. And WTF is taking BP so long to fix this leak?? Maybe it's that their primary concern isn't on stopping the flow but on recovering the oil so they can sell it? Seriously - when the first thing you do is strart drilling "recovery" wells the intent is pretty clear. Every attempt at actually stopping the leak has been lame even to non-experts.
Speaking of which...how about this timeline:

| 04/12/10 | HALLIBURTON ESTABLISHES NEW PRODUCT SERVICE LINE, ANNOUNCES AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE BOOTS & COOTS AND COMBINE WITH CURRENT ASSETS |
4/20/10 - The Deepwater Horizon drilling rig that exploded April 20 sank two days later in water 4,992 feet deep. And the rig's ruptured well extends from the seafloor into the Earth's crust an additional 13,293 feet.
4/22/10 - The oil rig Deepwater Horizon sank April 22, 2010 off the coast of Louisiana resulting in 11 persons missing of the 126 on board. BP was completing a new oil well at the time, and was constructing a layer of cement in the well to reinforce it which resulted in the blowout.
Seriously?!? HALLIBURTON?!?! I find this too bizarre to be a coincidence. Of course, we'll never be told the real story on why the rig exploded. BP will be the scapegoat and will be forced out of business.
Ok....my brain just fizzled out. There's a lot more for me to add. Watch for Part II when I can think again....
