Trapped Miners in Chile

I'm watching BBC America and they are live at the scene, looks like the rescue pods are being put into position to begin the rescue operation in... they're saying about two hours from now. They hope to have the first of the men out tonight. Pray, chant, burn incense, cross your fingers & toes, think good thoughts, whatever it is you do - it surely can't hurt.

burn incense

I think I will stick to praying!

Been saying some silent prayers for the past couple of months.

Reece, you don't like incense?

I'm sorry. Where did my common incense go?

That's a difficult word to play with.

Better behave yourselves, don't want your posts to get censered. Your accounts could go up in smoke.

I think we're all obsessed with this sensitive issue!

Hadn't heard that part ^^^

Hope they all make it out safely.

Three? Good news!

Best thing is they are out before Christmas!

I bet they find life a new meaning after being trapped 700 meters below the ground for months!

Good news indeed!

Fantastic!

Nine out safely so far, number ten on the way as I type.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that they all get out safe! And I hope they enjoy their first beers and smokes - that was what those heartless people from above refused to send them down!

(yes, yes, I know about the reasons, but it's cruel anyway!)
