Nav just wrote me saying he/she (gotta help me out here) thinks Thundercats will be made into a movie by 2010. I have one question though. Who will play Cheatara? Meow.

A Tsunami has hit the Solomon Islands. I recently posted about the Tuvalu Islands.

HONIARA, Solomon Islands - A powerful undersea earthquake Monday in the South Pacific sent a tsunami several yards high crashing into the Solomon Islands, devastating at least one village and killing at least four people, officials and residents said.

Police and residents said a wave about 10 feet high struck the western town of Gizo, inundating buildings and causing widespread destruction within five minutes of the bone-rattling earthquake.

“There wasn’t any warning — the warning was the earth tremors,” Alex Lokopio, the premier of the Solomon’s Western Province, told New Zealand’s National Radio. “It shook us very, very strongly and we were frightened, and all of a sudden the sea was rising up.”

“I saw the wave … all of a sudden the water was just rising up and moved toward the island and hit all the houses on the coastal area, and all of their property was washed away to the open sea,” he said.

Lokopio said up to 4,000 people had fled to a hill behind the town and that they may need emergency shelter and other supplies.
