Still, this is good news for the kids and their parents and the "locators".
“the two British divers who were the first to speak to the lost boys are named Rick Stanton and John Volanthen, who are world-renowned for their rescue and recovery work in caves.”

TWO THUMBS UP!
Thanks.
Saved by two “WHITE PRIVILEGE” guys.

Oh wow! Great news!
Nice goal! I’m not even a soccer fan but that was pretty impressive. There was another highlight goal I saw about a week ago where a goalie try to clear the ball from the net but instead an opposing player kicked it right in from about 30 feet out.
Zlatan’s playing in the MLS now.
I yelled the same thing just as I saw this. Great news.
Agreed...
Prayers have been answered then.
Ok I just have to ask.
What the hell were these idiots doing going cave snooting ?
They had an idiot coach—these poor kids were so lucky to be found.

cave snooting ???

A snob. tr.v. snoot·ed, snoot·ing, snoots. To treat haughtily: a couple who were snooted by the headwaiter. [Dialectal variant of snout.]
True they picked the wrong day to they stick their nose into the cave.
Kids gotta have fun.
Now wait just a danged minute here ! How did I get pulled into this?

Oh, I see now , yous guys are talkin’ about my nose huh ? You know what they say about guys with big noses !!
Snoot ;O)
The rescuers got to one section a day or two ago that they figured the boys would be - the spot is up a bit higher from the seasonal rains/floods. But when they got there - it too was flooded. A few days more they got farther back in (and up?) and found them.
I’m guessing it is all clean fresh water - so at least they had that. I forget what the saying is - but something like you can last 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water and 3 weeks without food.
Hey, like in airplane crashes, if you can walk away...
I’m glad they’re ok.
Thanks for the mention.
Well, they must have had air and water. I guess the food came in time.
Snooting=sniffing
Sorry I was autocorrected.
Uh-oh, looks like I provided too much personal information !! Wink, wink. ;O)
