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 ^^

I wish there was something everone could do to help.

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.

Hope they get control of the nuclear plant, their problems just started and hope thing turn around for them. Thoughts and prayers are with them.

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.
