Re: dem miners got out

I heard they're not getting paid for their time stuck in the mine. They totally got shafted.

Re: dem miners got out

I heard Oakley sunglasses paid the miners and the government $40,000,000 for the miners to wear the glasses as they come up the hole, and all the talk shows want them... guess they are pretty much set.

Re: dem miners got out

Such a moving story, it even has me in tears at times. Hoping the remaining miner (on his way now) makes it out safe and sound!

[QUOTE=Corven;896819]they better be performing the Chilean Miner on him[/QUOTE]

A freed Chilean miner walks into a bar....

and a hot chick buys him a drink. She eyes him up, turns to him, and says, "Your place? Or mine?"

Re: dem miners got out

I heard those miners were pretty pissed off about people making jokes about them, and wanted to fight anyone who made them. But I don´t think anybody would stoop down to their level.
