So much suffering.

Pam, what's up with the European snobbery? Hard to believe but the U.S. runs stories about the tsunami every day too.

My attempt at sarcasm, sweet BQ. Please accept my heartfelt apologies for any hurt feelings which may have resulted from my inability to use humor properly.
Big kiss.

And actually, the tsunami fixation here is primarily focused on the white Europeans who died or lost loved ones, with far lesser (and vaguely colonial/parental) concern regarding the non-white natives who've lost everything - often also their lives.

You're all fixated on the tsunami, meanwhile, it RAINED on me this morning. I hoping my house doesn't Cave-In.
I'd say Europeans are fixated on Nazis.

Your story about the 'mad pounders' still cracks me up, Terry- the bleeding roofer smoking on his phone.
