For the first time ever, I felt an earthquake. I heard the glass door in my shower rattle and felt the bed move. And since my wife is in Manhattan, I knew that it had to be an earthquake  :

Hi Phil,
Yeap! -> Felt it also -> some of the nick-nacks on shelves danced a bit.
Like you -> I knew it wasn't the wife .... because I took her to the airport Sunday morning for a buisness trip she had out to Indiana + a visit with her family.
I call it her tri-annual -> "Flatlander Fix" :LOL 
So...It's just Me, the dog, and the cat for an entire week. !

Yup...I felt it at my house too. My Parents live about 25 miles south of the epicenter and they felt it pretty good up there. Luckily it was a small one.
I felt the one last year too that was in the Washington DC area. We might have to move to the West coast to get away from the earthquakes. |

The Orionid Meteor Shower is supposed to occur this weekend. First, the earth moved and now fire will rain down from the sky. Maybe the Mayans were right, after all. . . .

Well, the mayan calendar didn't account for leap years, so the world should have ended about 7 years ago. |
