Today [9]

Right, it happened half an hour ago. lasted for one minute. It was actually 8,5 RS. Located 15 km from Aceh seashore. Tsunami warning has been released, but we certainly expect it won't, as it was 10 below sea level. But I'm watching on TV there a people panicking and rushing to higher level ground waiting for the official updates?

Fell worry about it as Aceh in the past was the most area severely damaged with high casualties to more than 100.000 few years ago along with those suffered in India, Pakistan, and Thailand.

My hometown is almost 3000 km away from it.

Hope everything will be fine over there.

Edit: 10km below sea level

 

[Arc]

Very nice to know that you are safe, Kevin !! First knowing the word - Indonesia ... it made me highly worried !

 

[CB]

Thanks for the concern, Arc.

Remembering 2004 Tsunami, it was the deepest grievance. Indonesia was the hardest-hit country with at least 174,000 people dead and many thousands more are missing.

The last minutes update indicate that there is no early signs of tsunami though the warning still in effect.

 

[Arc]

Just praying that such an incident may never occur !

 

[CB]

We certainly are.
And a bit relieved to hear the corrected update that the earthquake cited more than 300 km away. That is why it was felt in some of Pacific areas.

 

[JaidynM]

Wow, hope you're alright Kevin! :shock:

 

[CB]

Thanks Jaidyn. We are fine here.
My area is thousands miles away from it.
But we worry about people there as another tsunami warning was declared following another shakes at the same scale few minutes ago.

 

[JaidynM]

Yeah, I've been hearing a lot about it. Many surrounding countries have been affected too...

 

[CB]

Bright Thursday morning, everyone.

Feel happy as this night was just passing uneventfully.

I'm really getting NO mail from W7Forum now.( I've come here .. saved a link to the
threads I want to see or post on).
Never have had to do this before.. even my threads trying to get my QVC acct.. to log me in.. no e-mails from those replies.
I'm not at all sure what's happened on this issue..
Sweet dreams..

Today I reinforced why I shouldn't do list-less grocery shopping.

The other day I got home and realized I forgot x,y,z items. Today I went back and grabbed x, but forgot y and z.

The worst part is when you remember something the moment you just paid for x at the checkout and forgot y and instead of going back in - you go bugger it; go home and realized you forgot something else any way.

I guess I fall under the stereotypical male shopper

LOL, don't worry. It's perfectly normal.

For instance, my dad calls home every couple of minutes to ask my mum exactly what to buy. After all that, he sometimes still manages to forget something.

 

[smarteyeball]

lol, that sounds familiar.

Shopping is better left to the professionals

It could be worse at least you remember where the store is located and how to get back home.

 

[Joan Archer]

I'm OK I don't have to remember where the store is, I just sit here and shop.

 

[seavixen32]

I live a 3-minute walk from a big shopping centre so I get dragged over there quite often.

A little chunter never fails to work so I get to sit on a bench people-watching while my other half gets her shopping. I buy the coffees when she's done and honour is satisfied. Sorted!

 

[CB]

I always buy the right stuffs. But since I often bring home the wrong type and and wrong size, I mostly leave it to my wife.
Besides, she she rarely pay me back though I dedicate all monthly budget to her.

Today was a great day !!!

It rained part of the day. Is pouring now, and quite a thunder and lightning show going on. Doesn't happen very often here. A Guy
