I believe we're getting ass-raped by nature, that's for sure.

On one hand, all the earthquakes are in earthquake-prone areas.

On the other hand, this has also been the coldest winter ever for the USA.

Hmmm...

Man, this sucks. I heard Hawaii's tsunami warning was lifted because the waves actually weren't as big as they thought.

I swear they say every year is the coldest ever. When I was 8 we had 3-foot high snow banks by now. Mother Nature better get her ass in gear, cuz I wanna go sleigh ridin'.

But yeah, that's crazy. Earthquakes... damn, I'unno... there's nothing even remotely funny about it. We had a couple here in NJ years and years ago, but they were tiny and I slept right through them. I'm forever grateful we don't get many here.

Yeah... Hawaii got about 3ft waves, New Zealand got almost 7ft, Japan got 4ft (and some flooding in the streets), Tonga got 6 1/2, California had some small waves....some other countries also reported waves. The Tsunami reached all the way to Russia!

Tried to call my aunt and cousins that live in Hawaii (Kuai) yesterday but the phone lines were too busy. Probably will try again today.

Meanwhile Im still waiting on word of a friend in Santiago....ugh :/
