REALLY?! I haven't heard anything in the news!

From a Chinese website:

BEIJING, Nov. 15 (Xinhuanet) -- Residents of Japan's Pacific coast have been told to flee to higher ground to avoid a tsunami after a preliminary magnitude 8.1 earthquake struck the Kuril islands north of Japan at 1115 GMT Wednesday.

Japan's Meterological Agency has warned a tsunami of about 2 meters (6.5 feet) or more could hit the Pacific coast of Japan's northernmost island of Hokkaido and main island of Honshu after 1210 GMT, the agency said.

The quake struck about 390 kilometers east of the Etorofu islands north of Japan, according to the agency.

I used to love it has a kid, but always hated the cold. I should do more winter sports or get out of the country. :sweat:

I've never participated in a winter sport in my life. :sweat:

Wow. You should try. Did a lot of skiing and, what is considered a sport too, snowmobiling. I don't really know why. It's pretty much easy, unless you get stuck somewhere, then it's a sport. :mrgreen: ... or is it the 8 MPG part? :confused:

You could also try sledding with a crazy carpet. It doesn't have the highest fatality rate among sleds, but it's fun. :mrgreen:

Well, I've gone sledding as a child, and O! I just remembered that I used to ice skate, but that's about it. I've always wanted to go skiing. Like cross country skiing, but I heard it's a vigorous undertaking.

Same here. :victory:

I haven't been outside at all today so I dunno what the weather is like. I will say that it's FREEZING in my room even with the heat on, so I'm guessing is either 5C outside, or lower. :sweat:
