Not sure if anyone is watching the "Black Gold" show on Tru TV.  My brother was a roughneck and driller for several years during the 70's Oklahoma oil boom.  I've always been fascinated with the stories he'd tell and pictures he drew of his rigs.  If you haven't watched it you should give it a shot, it's pretty good stuff and from what my brother has told me it's fairly accurate as to what goes down on rig.  It airs on Wednesday nights on Tru Tv.

Every time I hear "Black Gold" I think of the Beverly Hillbillies song, "Black Gold, Texas T"........  :)
