Well I don't know if you all heard this, but there are 7 miners trapped in a mine not very far from where I live. Just wanted to ask if anyone saw this on the news. They just found out they are all still alive since they sent something down so the miners can communicate with us. I think they've been down there about 3 days. Just wanted to let you all in on the news.

They've been trapped for a while. They're freeing them, or doing so shortly.

...yay...

There were 9 miners trapped in an old mineshaft. The rescuers made contact with them last night, and now they're out after three days.

I wonder if an experience like that, puts life in a new view for you.

Ya they got rescued, it was 10 miles from where Fligth 93 went down. That stuff is all too familiar around here, we had that happen a bunch of times.

Yay, I just started watching the news when they were being rescued... I forgot I was eating pizza and started eating my fingers.

Yeah, I saw this in the newspaper because I deliver them. It is a summer job and I need money http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_redface.gif

Yeah, I was mistaken it was 9 miners. Well anyways, they're all out and only suffer minor injuries. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif

FOX NEWS ALERT!
One man has pain in his shoulder from nitrogen narcosis!

...Kinda melodramatic, but it's still great that they were saved =3.

Are you guys as addicted to Fox news (Fair and balanced reporting) as I am?

TV is evil. I don't think we get Fox News, either.

Fox news I thought was in the PA area. I was sure it's a local network.

I don't watch the news, it's too much BS to keep track of, and I have my own dramas to take part in.

Doesn't stop my family from obsessing over everything though!
