Japan definitely needs our prayers right now... I found a link with some surreal photos... I got the chills looking at them.










On a lighter note, I see my SSM Fit in this picture above ^^

all the tsunami video you see that involves cars... you see 2-3 or more fits devoured for what it is, Japanese claims death to be in 1,000+... testament to their being prepared for these things.

squashed cars aside, this is definitely surreal, like something off of a movie. The people of Japan are definitely in my prayers.

First thing I thought about when I logged on here. How's 555?

hope to hear from him soon. I know on vtec.net, Danielgr is in japan and he and his family are fine.

thoughts and prayers with 555, friends and family, and everyone affected by this.

My wife and I and our little MR gd1 are all good. Been a crazy ride though! Just got Power back and the roads are a mess! When there's no lights for traffic, everyone goes!
We are down on the miura penninsula so we got sheltered from a lot of waves.

Responded in the thread about Fit production. Thank you for your thoughts and concerns. What a Friday afternoon that was, another 11th day of a month I'll never forget.

this is all still too surreal to me. we were able to get a hold of my dad's side of the fam, but i have still yet to hear from my mom's side. she is 1 of 8 siblings..and i have at least 2 cousins from each aunt/uncle. im just hoping they're all okay and im sure they'll get in contact as soon as possible. this is helplessness.

if you guys want to contribute and get a cool little sticker in return, go ahead and donate here, abbitt wilkerson will be donating all proceeds to the red cross japan relief fund. Pray/Hope For Japan — Home

^cool! every little bit helps. I wish the military would send me to Japan with a team to help the relief efforts, but I'm stuck where I'm at. I think I might order a sticker.
