Pesky philips fridge freezers have dried up that gravy train that was flogging ice. If online poker dies on it's arse, we need new avenues of revenue generation, moolah making.

To that end, I'm setting up a buisness, see all this mining wot-not they carry on with in places like South Africa and Wales etc, they've been going about it all wrong.

They build big vertical shafts deep into the earth. At some point they start expanding this shaft into tunnels along a horizontal plane. As they get deeper, they encounter all sorts of problems.

The rock above them collapses in the tunnels, seismic activity underground, extreme  temperatures and humidity, ventilation problems etc etc. Even the most sophisticated deep mines who've never had a major incident can't avoid the odd fatality.

Billions of monetary units (  ) are spent on attempts to negate these problems, and drive mines deeper and deeper.

My question is, why not spend those billions on more dynamite.

See the way they built that big vertical shaft, just do it again next to it, and again, and again. Instead of messing around with tunnels and all the s***e that goes with them, just make a big f*** off hole in the ground.

Ventilation issues? No problem any more, look above you, that's the f***ing sky. The rocks falling on your head? All we need to worry about now is hailstones.

Countless fortunes on precision engineering and the advent of new technologies to better survive underground? What a load of bollox. We'll have an explosives budget and that's it.

Say no to unnatural dodgy tunnels, and yes to big f*** off holes in the ground.

Gone will be the image of a miner with blacked out faces who travel to work in a dodgy deathtrap of a lift. My guys can ski to work if they want to, or perhaps via some sort of flume, and they certainly won't need to touch up their make-up come knocking off time.

Anyone wishing to invest in thetank mining f***ing digging corporation. (Or TT M FDC) please PM me.



Before anyone asks, no I have not been rakking the ganja today.

I've anticipated the enviromental lobby.

We'll build hills with all the rock we dig out that ain't gold or coal.

Then build a membrane on top of it, put down some soil, and plant some grass (or other pretty s***) and those tree huggers will be delighted. Another munro to bag.

But you'd have to careful that excessive use of dynamite in the area didn't cause avalanches.

Avalanches, schmavalances.

Mondays is set the dynamite day, Tuesday is the blowing s*** up day. Everyone is wearing ear protectors and going hill-walking, well out of harms way so the land can slide all it wants. Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays are putting rocks onto the truck days.
When we have a particulary large avalanche on the Tuesday, overtime will be available at the weekend.

Science is killing the world, the less of it the better. We're only going to employ one geological expert, he tells us where to start digging. On Day 2 he gets fired.

Naturally, but I thought it only fair to give the Blondites first crack at the whip before the "investors" on that show get a chance.
