    Japan rocked with 8.9 earthquake.

    Lordy, lordy!

    Japan was just hit with an 8.9 earthquake that was followed by a 13 foot tsuami.


    Prayers to them.

    Japan and all the Pacific Rim nations, and our own Hawaii, which is now under tsunami warning, will be in our prayers. Stay safe as you can, everyone!

    This is terrible to hear this news, after what we have been through ourselves here in NZ, our hearts and prayers go out to everyone in Japan,my sister's niece is in Japan, but luckily on one of the islands, but the Tsunami is a worry, also for here in NZ, but i think we should be ok.

    The recovery down under is something that will take a long time,so we know what this effect will be on these poor people in Japan,we can only hope for the best outcome possible for everyone, this was even bigger than the one in Christchurch, and our damage was so bad,i can only imagine what it is going to be like in Japan.

    The entire west coast of the U.S. is now under a tsunami warning, and Hawaii could be hit around 8 a.m. Eastern time. That only an hour from now.

    Prayers for all.........

    I guess our coast lines felt it a little bit here. I saw some footage in Santa Cruz where a couple boats came loose and were crashing into docks and other boats.

    Many thoughts to every one involved.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    They say this is the 5th hardest earthquake in the world ever since they have been recording them.

    Prayers on the way for all !!!

    One of their nuclear reactors is having problems. The have no power to cool it down and now pressure is building up inside it. The US has offered portable generators to help pump water to it to try and get it cooled down.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    The videos are hideous to watch - so much damage so quickly.

    Japan has my prayers. We must not forget New Zealand or Haiti or Chile - those countries have still not recovered.

    I've heard that if it hits our northern West coast, the waves will only be about 2 ft which is nothing.

    Have been praying all morning... Last I heard 1,000 dead...
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Prayers for all affected by this. Horrible.
