22 dead, 46 missing from the typhoon's aftermath. Whole villages are washed away by the angry water.

The disaster is quite huge. Enough for international attenion, but will other country know about it? No, cause taiwanese deal with these kind of shit every year.

The news showed some footage of people having to eat dinner by candle light from having no electricity and water for 5 days. It reminded me of the ice storm of 97 in Montreal where everyone is stranded for 7 days in sub 40 temeprature, without water, nor electricity.

I remember curling up in front of the fire place, my body dirty from having had no shower for days. Greasy yet dry. Not to mention the constant cold and the frost bite on my toe. But I remember the dinner beside the candle light as well… It was warm.

Which is what the familly on the footage must feel like. I love disasters.
