Minecraft 1.7.3

Okay I need to say two things, I have heard rumors and watched videos about the upcoming 1.7.3 update for minecraft, and I don't know if I should say the people at Mojang, are crazy, bored, or just having fun. Recently they have added fishing back in a sense, we all know it was always there, but we didn't actually fish much, except perhaps pig and ghast fishing (If you haven't tried these they are fun, ghast fishing is more known, it is simply hooking ghasts pulling them to you, then attacking them as the try to run. The other is my favorite, it might go by some other names to, but you simply build up a tower or find a tall place to stand and look off (the taller the better, unless you can't hook the ground.), then simply hook a pig, a mob, or an animal, then reel in... Why? Well... Who doesn't want to see a pig flying through the sky until it falls to its death. It just allows all those pigs with good dreams of flying get to go skydiving. Even if it is without a parachute. Think thy will notice. Anyway now enchanting fishing poles with new enchantments on an enchantment table, pufferfish, salmon, and of course treasure (who doesn't like carrots, saddles, boots, etc.) add to fishing and seem to bring it back out of the dark, making it a big thing to do again, a fun way to get food and prizes. But this new update continues the fun, of course all those bug fixes, etc. taking away all the fun from those who realize them and find a way to use them to their advantage. If you haven't done that try it, sometimes it is amazing what you can do(especially with potion effects). But now they are truly going crazy with the updates, they are kind of fun, like chicken jockeys and rainbow sheep. Who doesn't want to see baby zombies riding chickens like madmen, and sheep died multiple colors? I of course do, then again I would also like to see miniature dinosaurs wearing clothes and reading books with British accents ("Alcatraz" by Brandon Sanderson reference). The point is I'm crazy and I love stuff like this.
