Thus far, no word from Keoni's family in Hawaii...I feel sure we'd hear somehow if anyone was in trouble from that sunami because Keoni's brother is a fire chief in Honolulu...I'm sure he's busy right now.

The film from Japan is horrifying....

JaH, please keep us posted.

Everyone is fine...no major problems except for some debris on the beaches.

Good to hear. We have two Japanese exchange students at school whose families are okay. Sounds like that's not the case for many. Very interestng on my FB to see comments from our kids around the world. Our Thai student May said "let's pray for Japan." A Korean student said "I hope they ain't die!" They all stay in touch with each other and with hometown folks.

One of the most disgusting things I've seen was a post at RI that showed 20 "tweets" taunting the Japanese with statements about how how this is payback for Pearl Harbor...never has the word "Twit"ter applied more!

Too many people are idiotic pigs. Fortunately most of what they seem to be getting is help and encouragement.

Tonight, the full moon is supposed to look the fullest it's looked in 20 years.

Last night was cloudy, but we stayed out until midnight. It's clear now and we have the makings of a fire ready.

I thought of a great sign for political rallies: If Newt wins, we're all eft.

Crossworders will get it. ;-)

No worries... the world ends May 21.

10121. arkymalarky - 5/13/2011 8:34:24 PM

Haha. Cute. I'm just waiting to hear from huck

The FBI finally caught Whitey Bulger. They put out a PSA on his girlfriend and in less than a week, they have him.

Some unreal weather this year. Earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, fires...

Minot, ND is getting it now.

10124. arkymalarky - 6/23/2011 7:21:27 PM

we haven't had any rain since before y'all were here. and none forecast.

10125. wabbit - 6/24/2011 12:45:28 AM

Wow. It's been pouring here for two days and at least another two days of rain are forecast. Average temperatures so far are cooler than normal for this time of year, which doesn't hurt my feelings one bit!

10126. arkymalarky - 6/24/2011 3:17:18 AM

It's bumping 100 almost daily. Can't wait for CO.

10127. judithathome - 7/5/2011 7:52:31 PM

Casey Anthony found not guilty...

Wow. Just wow.

10128. Ms. No - 7/7/2011 7:30:55 PM

Yeah, I think everyone feels she got away with murder. I know very little about the case, but it was my impression that she'd done it and there was very little question that she'd done it.

I mean, if the kid drowned in the family pool, why did they report her missing? Why did they hide the body? Why accuse the husband of molestation and abuse?

She must've been an incredibly sympathetic character for the jury. I think the evidence in the Scott Petersen trial was more circumstantial than this one.

10129. Ms. No - 7/7/2011 7:56:12 PM

Ah, just saw some juror testimony and it seems that because the prosecution couldn't prove cause of death it's not possible to prove murder. I'm not so much on the "lacking motive" part. Her motive would've been the same as that of any of these killer spawners: a kid cramps my lifestyle.

10130. judithathome - 7/8/2011 11:11:13 PM

The prosecution/DA should have gone for "negligent homicide"...

She and the defense attorney both have the same agent now...this trial will prove to be a money maker for them both. And no "can't profit from a crime" statute need apply since she was deemed not guilty.
