Not that this is a joke, but I was thinking the same thing. Godzilla versus Earthquake

Volcano in eastern Indonesia erupts, spews gas cloud

By The Associated Press (CP) – 15 hours ago

(http://maps.google.com/staticmap?center=-6.211544,106.845172&markers=-6.211544,106.845172,red&zoom=5&size=186x186&key=ABQIAAAA4nur-ime_GQysVNAB3EOPBSsTL4WIgxhMZ0ZK_kHjwHeQuOD4xTtIvaBhsv7I_yMlYRReNzvEBSUcQ)

JAKARTA, Indonesia — One of Indonesia's most active volcanos has erupted, sending lava and searing gas clouds tumbling down its slopes.

Volcanology official Agus Budianto said Friday that authorities were still trying to evacuate residents living along the slopes of Mount Karangetang.

There were no immediate reports of injuries or serious damage.

The 5,853-foot (1,784-meter) mountain is located on Siau, part of the Sulawesi island chain. It last erupted in August, killing four people.

Indonesia, the world's largest archipelago, is located on the so-called Pacific "Ring of Fire," an arc of volcanos and fault lines encircling the Pacific Basin.

The eruption happened hours after a massive earthquake in Japan that triggered a Pacific-wide tsunami.

Almost simultaneously with the strong shock that hit Japan and triggered a giant tsunami in the Pacific, the Russian Kamchatka volcanoes erupted too.

In the Russian Far East, there has been a strong volcanic eruption.  The air got a great cloud of volcanic dust, which can pose a threat to air traffic in the region.  In both cases, the volcanoes that threatened the outbreak of several days or even months.

 How to warn local experts, dust can rise up to a height of seven kilometers.

 Explosions were accompanied by minor earthquakes.  Russian service monitoring activity of cones, however, ensure that the implemented measures guarantee the safety of residents of neighboring towns.

 According to Russian media reports, the first cloud of dust covered the city of Ust-Kamczatsk.  Over five thousand people are forced to stay at home.  The authorities have recommended the strict ban on opening windows.  The population, however, was not evacuated, and experts say that the dust does not constitute a great danger.  Despite this, from Thursday, all offices of state institutions and organizations have suspended work - except in cases of emergency. For some time, also closed roads in the region.
