Earthquake?

[bluto]

Just felt the whole house moving while surfing MUD - right after watching Bourne Ultimatum.
Desk and the French doors in the computer room moving...wow and scary with the kids sleeping upstairs.

Anybody awake that felt the shakes too?

 

[bluto]

Yep thats a quake!

"A light earthquake occurred at 0:58:49 AM (PDT) on Thursday, August 9, 2007.

Shook the s*** out of us here.

I'm never going to sleep again.

Ever.

 

[bluto]

Still surfing MUD after that!
Were basically getting our stuff together just in case! Land Cruiser outside and ready to roll.

Im hearing some sirens outside - cardiac cardiac! or I fell and cant get up!

Take care Shah.

 

[Shahram]

You too, dude.


Damn, 2:31 and I'm still wide awake...

 

[smittycrusher]

[SOCALFJ]

It was only a 4.5!!! settle down!!!! We never felt a thing. Too far away from it.

Dude, Alan get some sleep NIGHT OWL!!!

 

[Shahram]

I finally got to bed about 04:00.

Had a handful of earthquake-related nightmares.

My 1.75 year old kid demanded oatmeal and 'nanas at 08:00.

"Beffast dada! DADA!!! BEFFAST! 'UNGY!"

My wife is still asleep. She asked if I could get up and take care of him because she is "sooooo tiiiiired."

I wish I could kick her in the balls.

F$%*.. Had the LX on the lift yesterday (last nite) I was doing slow Fr and Rr brake pads, flush entire brake fluids and rotate the tires.

Thank God that nothing happened

 

[PabloVTA]

I don't wake up to anythng under 5.5 anymore...

 

[redcheetah]

what the hell - both of you were up in the range of 2 am surfing mud. I have my MUD needs like the rest of us but damn. Jeez..I would at least figure you were on spankwire.com at that hour

 

[SOCALFJ]

bwahahahahah!

Shhhhhh...The sound of silence...the sound of silence fellow MUDder. Dont wake up the rugrats.

bwahahahahah!

Dont laugh too hard Dave - marriage and kids are on the horizon...

Spankwire? Meh - upkeep of the 80 is masturbation in itself to some.
Anyways, Im still trying to follow the "Will my 80 fit thru the Squeeze?" thread.

 

[Slomo]

Slept through it too. After living my entire life in So Cal and working during the Northridge Quake I have to agree that a 4.5 is no big deal.

F$%*.. Had the LX on the lift yesterday (last nite) I was doing slow Fr and Rr brake pads, flush entire brake fluids and rotate the tires.

Now if I had my beloved 80 on a lift it would scare the s#!t out of me. Especially if it had wheels and tires that total the entire investment I have in mine. Now if I were under it, I would run screaming like a school girl.

I bet even iron would deform with the weight of an 80 falling on it from 7 feet in the air.

 

[LX_TREME]

Less than 2.5 feet

I bet even iron would deform with the weight of an 80 falling on it from 7 feet in the air.

Not 7 feet in the air you see ...

 

[Slomo]

Not 7 feet in the air you see ...

Wow, how tall are you!?
