Just sent a message to my sister in San Diego. Crossing my fingers everything is fine.

Ironically, saw the movie 2012 last night...

Yes, yes there were tons of nissed FT’s and LeBoob probably rushed that shot at the end, fact is they came back from a 22 point deficit and took the lead. They couldn’t close it out though....We’ll have to check in during the playoffs it should be fun....

Stay safe out there!

Besides- we nearly always have a freeper living near whatever the event is- or their cousin or son or college roomate and we get updates from the scene.

Isn't that great!? G-d bless FR. I will go donate $100 right now.

Vodka will do. I’m just making a mental note so when we start looting I know where to go.

Yep, let’s hope its Cleveland/LA, I’d LOVE to see that match-up..clearly Cleveland is the better team, I can admit that, you guys have a deeper bench, while our bench, well, sucks nuggets. I think our bench today scored 4 points, WOW a whole 4 points, all by themselves LOL. But no matter what happens, we got our title from last year and as long as Boston doesn’t win squat then I’m happy..
Thanks for the well wishes, its LA, this crap is always happening here, that is what I get for living in a liberal state, I bet Nancy Pelosi had something to do with this

in actuality, aftershocks will continue for weeks. the biggest ones within the first couple of weeks. However, this area is generally very active seismically active, so it could become difficult soon to separate the aftershocks from non-related shocks.

CNN: Disneyland rides shut down. No update info if rides are back in operation. So reports may be hard to confirm.

Some outlets have this at 7.2.

A quality of a supershear quake is not much damage around the epicenter due to the suppression of the initial Swave.

The long rolling motion would be another signature. Did anyone here abnormal sound with this? If that was apparent then I would say that is exactly what occurred, and would account for the myriad of sympathy quakes we have had and are going to have.

I’m sure she’s good. No immediate reports of damage. San Diego has strict building codes and we were always prepared for earthquakes. I hate to say this, but I’ve always enjoyed “our” quakes.

I talked to my mom in El Cajon about 20 minutes ago. She said that this was the worst for her in the 40 years she’s lived in San Diego area. While she was on the phone another shock hit. She is on the 5th floor of an apt complex. I told her that she will feel more quakes, but that they won’t be as bad.

Sorry. By that I meant that the wind is blowing hard enough to shake the house. We might not have distinguished the effects of a distant temblor. Mrs. Lurkin was jogging n the treadmill and reported feeling nothing. Of course, now she's glued to the TV shouting updates to me down the hall while I shout FR updates to her. This is about as exciting as things get around here.

Sorry al baby. I got the One and Only Fema card for OC.

What did you have to sign away to get one, BG??? You are probably on the list for some new medical cost-saving procedure that you don't want!!!
