Before the 'quake, obviously.

117,000 and counting are dead, over 80,000 alone in indonesia

Sgt. Paine 12-30-2004 06:02 PM

Update from BBC 125,000 dead.

Jesus my heart stopped when they announced 117,000 then a few minutes later announcing 125 thousand. Let it stop.

build a city and attach a whole bunch of hot air ballons to it so it floats in the sky.

look at the interactive things on the right:

http://www.canada.com/national/national ... 0302db2f73

that has got to be hard for the familys not knowing where there relatives/friends are. im sure most of them are allright, most likly there is no way of people to contact family over there.

Imagine having to choose between which of your two sons lives and dies in a fraction of a second.

Luckily both kids survived. I don't know if could live with myself if I had to let go of a kid to save the other.

Our rep from my company's marketing firm was spending the holiday in Sri Lanka. Don't know if she's been accounted for or not.

ed: annoy: Poor bastards. I saw a clip today that showed the ocean water receded as far as the eye could see. The sea looked like a desert for a few moments. The people stared with curiosity why that had happened. Poor bastards didn't know the danger that was about to come.

Really? I am a fucking moron, because I don't give a shit that a few thousand people died?

The human population is six billion. Big fucking deal if 0.000866666666666666% of the population dies. I don't care. Let nature do whatever the fuck it wants, and stop complaining/mourning. Clean it up, forget about it. It's obvious they did forget about it already in the past if they haven't done anything to help protect themselves from natural disasters like this.

I am surprised this thread hasn't been locked yet. All because of some guys with different opinions on a situation that involves death.[/quote:3e7a3]

One: Its not "a few thousand" its now over one hundred thousand. Also, this is no different than Middle Easterners dancing and celebrated after 9/11. No wonder the world hates americans. Its ppl like you.
