Bitterly ironic

Owning a 007, this popped into my head while watching the Tsunami footage in Japan

I think that's the point, though. Throughout Japan's history, the tsunami has been a big thing. "Tsunami" is a Japanese word isn't it?

Look familiar?

I think that it means 'harbour wave'.

Back of my Monster I have on now too. I'm sure there was some significance to the star there too, can't think what it was right now.

I've actually just mentioned the Tsunami Seiko wave on Facebook talking about coincidental!

Have this Hiroshige on our kitchen wall...if you've seen the footage of the boat/"whirlpool"

Crazy how a 19th century, 10"x15" wood block print has become such an iconic image that remains relevant to present day events. Mt Fuji in the sun, the fishermen trying to elude the massive wave...
Poor buggers indeed.
