As a public service announcement, let’s review Tidal Wave Rule #1 : When you see a tsunami, or even something that looks like it might be a tsunami, rolling in from the ocean, do not stop to take pictures of it with your tricked-out camera. Bad things will happen.


These waves and the earthquakes that are causing them (Samoa, Indonesia) are killing hundreds of people, maybe more. Let’s not forget to pray for these folks who are suffering through these terrible ordeals. There’s no reason to imagine that we in the U.S. won’t get hit with something similar at some point.

Below is an interview with an eyewitness to the waves:
