surreal

The pictures. Can't stop viewing and reading. Like these:

In a second life can change. Those poor people.
This could happen in my lifetime. Here, right where I sit. All the chatter about 'supermoons' notwithstanding, it's a wake up call:

...if there is any good to come of these doomsday scares, it’s that they remind us that the Earth is a volatile place, and we are subject to disaster, sometimes without warning. Preparing yourself is rational and the smart thing to do! If you live an area prone to natural disasters like earthquakes, severe weather, flooding, or what-have-you, check with your local government or the Red Cross to see what you can do to be prepared.
