chilean miners - big up, nuff respect..

Song from Newfoundland:

I'se the b'y that builds the boat,
I'se the b'y that sails her;
I'se the b'y that catches the fish,
And brings them home to Lizer.

Cods and rinds to cover your flake,
Cake and tea for supper;
Cod fish in the spring of the year,
Fried in maggoty butter.

I'se the b'y that builds the boat,
I'se the b'y that sails her;
I'se the b'y that catches the fish,
And brings them home to Lizer.

Hip your partner Sally Tibbo,
Hip your partner Sally Brown;
Fogo, Twillingate, Moreton's Harbour,
All around the circle.

I don't want your maggoty fish,
That's no good for winter;
I can buy as good as that,
Down in Bonavista.

I took Lizer to a dance,
As fast as she would travel;
And every step that she did take,
Was up to her knees in gravel.

Susan White, she's out of site,
Her petticoat wants a border;
Old Sam Oliver, in the dark,
He kissed her in the corner.

I'se the b'y that builds the boat,
I'se the b'y that sails her;
I'se the b'y that catches the fish,
And brings them home to Lizer.
 
oh :(

BBC Mundo reports that Chile's health minister Jaime Manalich has revealed that one of the miners is suffering from acute pneumonia. The miner, who is not being identified, has a weak lung and may have to stay longer in hospital.

Hope he's alright
 
I'm pretty sure there's only two rescuers down there - at least that's what the BBC have just said. And only nine miners now.


That's what I also heard. However, you first had the mine expert went down, followed by the paramedic, and they've been followed by others, so unless they've sneakily got out without us knowing.... :hmm:
