Back when Christchurch in New Zealand had their big earthquake, I was quite moved to see the video and think about how frightened and unsafe everyone felt, and left a comment on their website. Later I got a nice email that they wanted to use my comment in the Actual Paper. Very cool, I thought.
Being the arrogant, self-absorbed fella I am, I went looking for my comment on their website. Turns out they've gotten hundreds of comments of support, including 343 of them from the US. I scanned through all of them.
Mine is 342 of 343.
I also mentioned one of my (many) favorite authors P.J. Ballantine. But yes, in the end, it's all about me. ;-)
Seriously, it's good to see they're rebuilding and doing better. And I hear they're getting tourists again. Sure wish I could be one of them.
Oh, wait, all about me again...
Ich Bin Ein Cantabrian.
Better?
