It is all most 4 a.m. and I am still awake and plugging away on my computer. I have been having a bought of sleeplessness this past week for some unknown reason. Even though it is Saturday night and most people wouldn’t think of it being too big of a deal since most people are able to sleep in on their Sunday mornings. We, the farmers of the world, on the other hand have to get up with the chickens seven days a week, no matter what, no excuses, that’s a fact, jack!
Anyway, there isn’t a whole lot to pick from on the TV to watch in the wee hours of the morning, even though I have cable and there are tons channels to choose from. As I’m just about to change the channel a news story broke telling us that the earthquake that is still devastating Japan and other area’s has been upgraded from a 8.9 to a 9 on The Richter Scale. Isn’t that something, I’ve never heard of an earthquake with that high of a number on The Richter Scale. Most of the times we hear of these powerful rumblings being in the 6’s or very low 7’s, so this is just unheard of.
