I'll stick to mining in WoW...

I was at Quiznos for lunch, watching the "breaking news" on CNN and all this garbage about Michael Vick. "Will he play in the NFL again?!" I sure hope not. If him being an NFL player effects his sentence in anyway, I'll be extremely displeased. But I thought "what about those miners in Utah?" I haven't heard an update about them recently and it's been over two weeks.

I did a google news search for "miners" and skipped over some article about 181 trapped miners in China. They're in China, I'm not in China, why should I care, right?* Well I found an MSNBC article about the Utah miners. The first thing I thought when I saw it was "holy crap, what homely women" but I got past that and read on. I feel for the family and friends of the trapped miners, but three others have already been killed in rescue attempts.

*Yes, I'm being facetious... The number of mining accidents in China is tragic and the Chinese government needs to make serious steps to improve safety. CNN should be covering that mining incident in Shandong instead of Michael Vick crap. Constant proof that celebrities in trouble are what drives ratings and ratings are always more important than reporting what people should really care about.
