   Damn this is crazy! My positive thoughts go out to the people dealing with this. I feel so bad. 8.9M is ridiculous!

   It finally hit Crescent city which is like 5 hours from here i think. I mean it would never hit Sac, but thats crazy! nothing huge, i guess the docks are gone and some boats pushed, but its still very weird for Cali to get any action from a tsunami.

   Checked in with Sactown to make sure his wifes family is safe! I know she is from Japan, so I really hope everything is ok!

   IM sure everyone has probably heard about it by now, but if not, here is a news story.

   Damn...Real sad for all the people over there. My brother is stationed in Japan and haven't heard from him yet but I'm hopeful he and his wife and kid are good. My thoughts go out to everyone affected by this.

   you from Cali? yea, we are VERY lucky in the aspect that we dont get this crazy weather.. no tornados, earthquakes happen but not as frequently or as bad on the rhicter scale, no tsunamis.. but they are evacuating people in Santa cruz, SLO, humbolt.. etc.. Even though nothing THAT bad will happen here, its good to be safe than sorry because you cannot predict nature!

   Actually yea..I was born and raised in L.A. I work in Culver City/Santa Monica and they did the same here. I do believe we are in for one big quake soon. Mother Nature has been on a Hiatus here for a while.

   I have some friends here who have family near Sendai. I haven't heard from my friends yet.
   Yup, they're evacuating people all along the coast it seems. 8.9 seems to be the largest earthquake we've had in this young century according to http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/

   yea its Japans biggest in recorded history i believe.. i mean damn 8.9 is HUGE..i can't even imagine going through this.. man if i lost all my stuff i would lose it.. especially my pictures and what not. Sucks that stuff cant be erased but all that matters is getting you and your family to safety and just surviving it all.

   1st vitctim in CA has been swept away by the tsunami because he was taking pictures of it with his friends. Not a smart move but my thoughts go out to his family and i hope he returns.

   ANother earthquake 6.6M just hit Japan again.

   Damn.

    What's up, y'all? Hey, boombip, sorry I didn't get back to you on that email; I've been out sick from work the past two days (head cold)!

    My wife's family all live farther down near Osaka/Kyoto, so they were all good (although my mother-in-law had a heckuva time trying to get in touch with everyone Japan-side; the whole country's phone system is off-the-hook, I'm sure). I'm just stunned by what's happened. That whole place is a mess right now. My thoughts go out to everyone over there. If there's been millions of dollars of damage over here in Cali alone, I can only imagine what it's gonna take to rebuild for people in Sendai.

    Not to get too political, y'all, but it's times like this that just get me p*ssed at the people (in the US, particularly) that act like they "earned" their money, so they shouldn't have to give it to the have-nots... like there is some big conspiracy going on with everyone who doesn't have money to just take everyone's sh*t. This Japan thing is gonna take a large effort to get people back on their feet again, and it wasn't lazyness that led to their situation, it was a f*ckin' EARTHQUAKE (natural disasters, just like the hurricanes in New Orleans). People that got money... get off your a**: now's the time to give it! One love, people.

    Some of my friends live in Japan, they're okay though since they live a good ways south from the epicentre.
