    DO NOT !!! I say again DO NOT..... eat beans.
    Trust me, If I do get buried in a quake?

    Pray that I have had beans for my last meal, If no one comes to rescue me?
    I can gas myself to death.

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    I'm being silly, but, that's just to settle my anxiety.

    When I hear about a quake hitting a populated area/country?
    I get flashbacks! I do not mean to trivialize by calling it a Post Traumatic Anything.

    But, it's pretty durn close.

    Not meaning to sound heartless...

    But how much is this going to cost us? Has Obama made a pledge to the relief fund?

    There was one in Oklahoma yesterday, too. A 4.something, not devastating to be sure but scary nonetheless. Bible prophecy come to life.
