    Dramatic footage shows pagoda collapsing into river



    A Buddhist temple in central Myanmar has been swallowed by rising floodwaters after heavy rainfall.

    The pagoda was built in 2009 in Magway region.

    At least two people have died and more than 90,000 people have been displaced by flooding in Myanmar this month.

    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!"

    It looked a bit surreal but believable as I've seen recent pics of our bridge at the creek underwater. Hasn't gotten to the house yet. Thank goodness.

    Oh, and yes I've been tasked with helping to feed the children as they can't seem to fend for themselves as they are under water.

    You'd think they could just find ......................the fish.

    Or another type of sucker.

    Must have sold all their amulets and forgot to keep a couple back for protection.
