Okay, I can’t take the idiot on Nightline who called us ‘egocentric Americans who want to insert ourselves in this moment’. These people make me sick.

I will love thee, O Lord, my strength: The Lord is my firmament, my refuge, and my deliverer.

The sorrows of hell encompassed me: and the snares of death prevented me. In my affliction I called upon the Lord, and I cried to my God: And he heard my voice from his holy temple: and my cry before him came into his ears.

Who is like God. I thank him for all the drillers, geologists, who left Afghanistan and came from places in PA and Colorado; I thank the doctors, NASA participants and the media for showing the outcome. I thank him that he gave us a country, (not the only one i’m sure), that excelled enough to help these and many others around the world... whether hated or not.

Continued prayers for those remaining to be lifted out, the families, those who helped their nutrition, routine setup and bolstered their faith.

69 days.

Let us all thank God for what we have... and show our families how much we love them.

Now more hard work begins for the miners up top.

Seeing that first miner come up last night and his little boy standing there waiting and crying.................

Well THAT was a tear jerk-er for me man!

anybody who didn't get the sniffles from that scene is emotionally barren.

[spectre]

Thanks for an amazing thread!

He's out! I can't wait for the movie. WOW!
