Hopefully it falls on the workers

WWL just switched to close up, looks to be 3 laminated mats up top and they are not even close to level. This can be very bad.

"Uh no, put that piece of plywood over there, look bend down and look at this, you think that looks level?"
"Sir, they have instruments for this sort of thing"
"Fk that, look, I can see with my naked eye we need to lower this corner of the plywood 2 inches and it'll be fine, Ok, wait, there's a little mud there, let's dig over a little bit"
"Sir usually they do soil samples for this sort of thing"
"Fk that, I know mud when I see it"
"Sir, I'm not sure about this, I want to live"

Does it look level?
No, it's slanting left.
That's because you have one shoe on

It's funny how they were able to do this in 1953, but Landrieu can't manage to properly plan it almost 70 years later.

Where are the outriggers going to go?
Outriggers? we don't need no stinking outriggers.
And I've never personally operated a crane before but doesn't it have to be somewhat level before the computer will allow it to boom out?

Even the excavator is having to "tag" himself off the hill, but they expect a truck crane to make it up in reverse....

I hope they don't ruin Mitch's party and not be able to take it down. After spending $600k on the party that would be a bummer for Mitch.

I'm no operator or engineer, and I know just enough about heavy lifting and physics to get me in trouble, but any ordinary Joe contractor would have had this site shut down by now.
They have what look to be appropriate mats for the equipment, but the mats are sitting on freshly turned uncompacted soil, on an incline, and I swear that I see them shimming and leveling the mats with shipping pallets. What's going to happen when they boom that crane out 100' and hang 10,000 lbs (I'm guessing) on the end of it in windy conditions? It's not going to be very tolerant to even a minor shift or settling at the base when a pallet crushes or mat sinks.

Looks like they are almost ready for the crane to make another run at it!

More like 20K pounds, but your point is valid. I'm afraid we are about to witness someone get badly hurt or killed. All to gain Mitch some votes for his senate run.

You think they fix the grass today or leave looking like shite for a while? I think we all know.
