There was an eruption in Japan on this date. Residents of this Date were warned to evacuate, because it may prove to be a very bad date in the calendar of Date. Tens of thousands of Date residents fled the area, because they were afraid of remaining in Date. Apparently Fridays are particularly bad in Japan. I know we had a bad date here a couple of years ago, but most of the residents remained, and now we are trying to come to grip with the possibility that GWB could possibly become the next leader of this nation. The residents of Date will never have to deal with that sort of frightening possibility.
