        Sometimes, fate deals one a lousy hand:

        A father n son weeps for his son n sibling at Takata Junior High.
        D boy didn't go to school dat fateful day n died in d quake/tsunami.
        His classmates went to school n survived d disaster.
        His classmates grieved when his body was brought back to school.

        Sometimes, fate is kinder:

                I'd thot quite a number of jap mothers breastfeed. So sad to see that they have to bottlefeed their babies and share bottles when the water is unsafe.

                  How come the graves are so shallow? Is that hygienic?

                    These graves r temporary burial sites.
                    d Japanese normally cremate their dead.
                    There r more dead than d city can handle right now.

                      Something to think about.


                      Nuclear power is being considered by SG gahmen as an alternative power source.
                      It is understudy n still a long way to being built.
                      If it comes to pass dat a decision to build or not to build is ask of u,
                      Would u agree to build one on SG soil?
                      SG is all of ~ 700 sq km in area; ~ 42 km at its longest lengthwise n ~ 22 km at its widest breadthwise.
                      Where would d nuclear plant be located?
                      If there is a nuclear disaster, where can we run to?
                      Wat if Malaysia decides to build one at Pasir Gudang just across d Johor Straits?

                        Even before the tragedy in Jap, I did not want SG to build one. Sure there's no earthquake but there's always human error. I mean even a poor village in India can build and depend on solar energy, why can't we, ok we will use much more energy than a village in India but surely there's a solution. If need nuclear energy to maintain our lifestyle, I will give up my air-con, my TV, my water heater, my electric fan, half the time I spend on computer... As for Malaysia, hopefully, they have more sense
