via la.guestofaguest.com As Southern California residents, the situation is a painful reminder that our uneasy peace with the San Andreas Fault is never a given, and that our preparation for such a disaster is, in all likelihood, woefully inadequate. And for me personally, I thought about the country, easily the craziest, most interesting place I've ever called home, and the people I worked, learned and lived with. So I figured today I'd give you my own little version of why I care about Japan, and why you might too. MORE>>

[Editor's Note: Today we're taking a different approach to the daily "Besk $2k" post for a worthy cause.] Over the weekend, I, like a lot of people, watched the news from Japan with a heavy sadness.

Last Saturday, Aug. 23, we headed to Stone Meadow Farm in East Hampton (the place where Mariah Carey recently got married) to celebrate the 125th birthday of the American Red Cross. On the way in, I was greeted by Rob Rich, and so, we finally meet in person! I also walked in at the same time as my friend Heinz Haas, the tennis pro/teacher who has some BIG things coming up. Russell Simmons, was there, (his jewelry line was one of the evening’s sponsors) as was George Gurley who was interviewing guests on thier favorite moments of the summer.
