Imagine being woken up by your bed shaking to the point of no control or sitting in traffic while the earth shook beneath you and cars came crashing into yours, can you imagine that? Or better yet what about a massive wave coming straight towards you and you had not where to take refuge. Well, the people of Japan didn't have to imagine that, because last Friday the movie "Hereafter" came to life--taking an entire town off the map.

Pearl Harbor Attacked--Back Story and More
Tuesday, December 7, 2010
There are actually many names for December 7th, 1941. By the Japanese Imperial Headquarters, it was called Hawaii Operation or Operation Z, but by Americans-- it was simple "the attack on Pearl Harbor". My generation still had a good forty years before we appeared on this planet and my parents had a good ten years, nonetheless "the attack of Pearl Harbor" was and is something we remember about December 7th.
