[lilmexicano638]

all i can think of is the song..... smoke on the water.

[candr]

The only thing I can say of this event, is this, This is a country that was prepared for such, imagine the deaths that would have been if they were not. (other countries might take note) I say a prayer for those that have passed because of this and for those that must live thorugh their passing.

[mechiefslapahobitch]

I think all the whales and dolphins focused all their psychic powers on that earthquake fault and caused the earthquake, to get even.

[SergioTokyo]
