The best things about tidal waves

...Besides that Czech übermodel, I mean.
 
 The best thing, so far, about this wave has been CNN.  Their anchor just called pedophile-haunt, Phuket, "Fuck It".  Scouts honor.

There are absolutely no good things about that tsunami.  Not even a CNN anchor pronouncing an island's name wrong.

Agreed. We got back from Phuket on the 20th. Having seen how remote some of the outer islands are, I think it will be weeks before Thailand is able to get an accurate estimate of the number of casualties.

Yeah, 80,000+ dead shouldn't inspire bathroom humor, even from the likes of some on this board.

 I just can't wait for the movie.  Do you think she hears a KA-CHING sound when the cash register in her mind turns over?

I thought I remembered someone asking about Phuket a while back. Glad you're safe.
 
 A co-worker friend left for Sri Lanka for a month's stay. Fortunately, she was inland when the tsunami hit the coasts. Before I received word she was OK, I was a nervous wreck. I can't even imagine what others are going through who haven't received word on their loved ones' whereabouts.

Ok, get a grip everyone. He was trying to find a positive with all this negativity. On a more positive note, with our luck, maybe some of the dead were terrorists.

Sometimes, there isn't a positive to be found.

Glad to hear your friend's ok. It's so hard to even imagine how one disaster can claim so many lives without warning.
