PAB. Because his posts are priceless and the world should not be denied his incredible intellect and sharp wit.
 
We are in a tsumami area and I have already thought about this. I would get my fiance in her wetsuit, then me into mine. We would get on surfboards and try our best to stick together. We are on the third story so chances are if it gets that high we would be screwed as it is anyway, but that is what I would do.
 
Here's an interesting titbit, most tsunamis travel at hundreds of kilometres an hour while still propagating through the open ocean. Once they start to stack up and form the wall of water commonly associated with tsunamis, yes they do slow down, but it's still nearly impossible to outrun a tsunami. The smart thing to do would be to get somewhere stable and high, not into a car 🙂

But assuming I had 5 minutes to run from a theoretical something and escape with my life.. hmm, hard one. I guess I'd pull out my hard drives, my camera, laptop, and my important documents (passports, birth certificate, other certificates, etc)

 
I'd call up Zane, do some heavy shit, and then zone out while the tsunami rips through the area. At least I'd be numb to begin with!
 
I grab a bag of chips and scarf them down. If I'm going down, I'm going down quenched.


/Had to say it. Hope no one else did.
