Sorry to hear that, Quix. I hope things will get better soon! Can you mix a little red eye gravy with that mush?
More proof of climate change...
THX.
Yeah.
I’ve even ground chicken fingers.
VitaMix and Food Processors are useful machines.
There have been two tremors that hit last year, that I know of. I live in Irving, Tx. and felt them both...they were mentioned on CNN and Fox at the time.
They didn’t do much damage though.
Thx.
Rushmore Rocks, please add my sympathy to bd’s. We KNOW what it’s like. At least your son has interesting stories to tell now and, of course, is glad along with you his injuries were minor.
I'm a native and life-long resident here in CA, any my sense is that we are overdue.....
The ring of fire is on the move.
Why thank you, La Dita. You are also a gringa dulce.
How nice of you. I did think of you a couple of weeks ageo when we were paying tribute to General George Washington, since you have that great view of his likeness every day. Sorry I didn’t get around to pinging you; he has more than a few admirers around here.
Interesting. I'm in Collin County, and never felt a thing.
Of course, I'm originally from SoCal, so I'm probably de-sensitized to anything less than a window rattler.
I feel it, too. I can't explain it, but it's something like a deep disquiet in the back of my mind.
The '94 Northridge quake took some of that pressure off my mind, but it never totally left me.
Thanks for the Ping, Tainan and for your update. It's good to hear that you are okay and also that your house didn't suffer any significant damage.
Perhaps I should have chosen something like Larrymoecurly. :)
