It’s the curse of celebrity. For some asinine reason the governor feels the need to add drama to this situation.

Thank you for the link. Those were EXCELLENT graphics and pics, especially the one pointing out the 15-in ("as wide as three Mars bars end to end") humped section through which the boys et al must travel alone.

The Daily Mail often does one of the best jobs globally when it comes to comprehensive reporting.

Six are out I believe. The are bringing them out at a dead run. Heavy rain after Tuesday.

An alternate verse:

Eternal Father, Strong to Save. — The “Navy Hymn”

Lord God, our power evermore,
Whose arm doth reach the ocean floor,
Dive with our men beneath the sea;
Traverse the depths protectively.
O hear us when we pray, and keep
Them safe from peril in the deep.

[DUMBGRUNT]

I laughed and smiled at your comment.

Then I remembered; it is not over yet.
When the THIRTEEN are safely extracted, we will party as we did at Trump’s victory.

Eternal Father, Strong to Save.

Lord God, our power evermore,
Whose arm doth reach the ocean floor,
Dive with our men beneath the sea;
Traverse the depths protectively.
O hear us when we pray, and keep
Them safe from peril in the deep.

Absent the “help” from Musk’s BS proposal, it seems...

Good luck to the rescuers - you’re going to need it.

My career Navy father always said, ‘the harder you work, the more luck you will find’.

Eternal Father, Strong to Save; alternate verse.
Lord God, our power evermore,
Whose arm doth reach the ocean floor,
Dive with our men beneath the sea;
Traverse the depths protectively.
O hear us when we pray, and keep
Them safe from peril in the deep.

Your father is/was a wise man. Sometimes Murphy joins in at the worst moment.
