I feel morbid today

It's the year of Tiger. 2010. My year.
"Not a good year for you," mom said, "should have something red on you throughout the year."
Okay mom, I'll try.

I don't look good in red, but I bought a red sweater anyway.
Maybe there is something about this year. It has not been very good so far.
Well, it has not being bad...but not good.

I know, I know, worse things can happen. Look at Haiti; Look at Chile.
I am looking. The disasters are moving closer and closer to us.

• The great South Asia tsunami of 2004;
• The China Sichuan 8.0 earthquake of 2008;
• The Haiti earthquake of 2010;
• The Chile 8.8 earthquake of 2010;

The disaster is moving from the other side of the globe to just under us.

Why is it that I have not seen any fund raising and relief activities for Chile?
