It is very eerie to see pictures of vast distruction surrounding a mosting intacked home. Gives me the shivers. I've heard of people suffering survivors guilt when going through a wild fire, tornado, flood etc and coming back to find their home had not been touched when other around them lost everything.

As someone said (a black joke in the face of destruction): "next time, make sure you paint your house yellow".

The cemetary picture is so sad looking.

Where did you get it? It's very weird, isn't it? Hard to get used to seeing that kind of thing.

The cemetary picture is so sad looking. I can only imagine the sadness and horror of relatives of people buried there or who may recognize the coffins.
