Been watching the situation closely due to my sister and brother-in-law being over there. Luckily they were able to get on a train to Osaka this morning and get outta Dodge. They'll probably fly straight to Seattle from there. Will be glad to give them a big hug.

My sis said she did a phone interview with the producer of the Today show. May be on tomorrow. They were scheduled to do a sit down with Ann Curry to tell their story but left Tokyo before doing that.

Lots of props to my brother-in-law for taking good care of my baby sis. After the quake he ran 5 miles in his business suit to go home and find her. An ex-Seahawk fullback he probably looked like Godzilla with the eye of the Tiger spinting down the sidewalk in a pair of Ferragamos
