The funerals are this week, and the good folks from the Westboro Baptist Church are coming to picket (I'm sarcastic with the good folks part, hopefullly that's obvious).

I am fearful as to what might happen. Perry County has a strong interest in the 2nd Amendment, if you know what I mean. I am hearing a lot even from people in church this morning to the tune of, "well, if they go to Perry County, they'll just get what's coming to them." Some of that surprised me- I understand the anger, the hate even, but I'm fearful of the ramifications if that anger is carried out.

I'm not trying to make this a political thing or a guns rights thing. At all. But what I am fearing is that this is the exact type of thing that Phelps and his crazy-ass legion want. They would love for someone to injure one of their own so that they could march into court and just make more money to continue spewing their vile hatred.

I'm hoping and praying they don't even show up (for the family's sake primarily, but also so that a lot of people I know and love in that area aren't hauled off to jail on account of these horrible, horrible people).

it would probably be difficult to assemble a large number of people to form a ring around the westboors, drowning out their bs by pointing and laughing.

or set up a huge speaker behind a house, or a hill, or something, aimed at the group, and hire James Earl Jones to intone into a microphone, just as Phelps fires up his act, "For Christ's sake, you idiot - shut up!!"

when did people/the world know that the tsunami was going to happen?

I have a friend who's into all that Illuminati stuff and I love arguing with him about it, but he did kinda call the tsunami on Thursday. trying to figure out if he just knew about warnings or whatever and was pulling my chain, though he's not really that clever

Just realized that Pat's vs. Geno's is not only a cheesesteak rivalry, but also a rivalry between women's college basketball coaches.

Well, there was a 7.2 earthquake off the coast of Honshu on 3/9 (Wednesday) at 2:45 AM GMT, or 9:45 PM Tuesday EST. this was followed by a series of detected quakes in the same area. So I'm sure there were at least concerns of a tsunami as early as Tuesday night.
