As a placer miner who likes to break rocks.....

[Aufisher]

I just wanted to say I have a ton of respect for all you hard rock miners out there!

Fisher... you're sick, twisted and evil!!!! I LIKE that in a person!!!!

Seriously though I too have a lot of respect for the "Rocky Bunch"! Their work is tough, dangerous and sweaty! The only good part of it I can think of off the top of my head is that many of them get to play with explosives! Sorry.... Left over excitement from the Army demo range

Makes it well worth it when that rock glitters with ''Gold''!

Blowing rocks up is fun. Even better when they glitter.
