First New Zealand, now Japan!

For all those people out there who haven't heard (people living under rocks and such), Japan has been hit by one helluva big earthquake that is being measured at 8.8 - 8.9. And because it's so big, a tsunami has followed it and caused even more destruction.

Just a little note that Japan sits on the Pacific rim, which New Zealand also sits on, and it's no coincidence that they both got hit by earthquakes.

There are also alerts for New Zealand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Hawaii and other countries for tsunami waves.

So far the earthquake has only taken one life. Let's hope it stays that way.
