3.6 last one.. But it was a stronger jolt. Off to my aunts to see if she has the shotgun out for the UFO's landing.

Well to really see if the 75 year old house is still standing. Its a 50/50 bet...

Hope everyone is doing ok and not much got damaged. So it shook pretty good it sounds :/ I am not looking forward to any of this stuff. I have only lived here for 3 years and my husband laughs when I feel them cus he can't. I don't want to feel a big one that's for sure, but I am sure no one does.

Woke me up,too. I was speaking to a DirecTV rep last night who was in Oklahoma and he was telling me that the tornado swarm was just about to hit the city they were in.

Eesh! I grew up just outside of Boston where all we had to worry about were snow storms and hurricane leftovers.

I'd take a hurrican over a earthquake. Least you have a few days to get out of its way. Or your just retarded.......
Tornado? Take that one too... If I can see it I can deal with it.

If I have to deal with it and cant see it.... I tend to shoot first..
I just dont want to lead poison the ground water here..
