Did you feel any of the effects? Is any of your stuff trashed?

There was an Earthquake?

I should watch the news or something.

No I was pretty lucky it was a 6.5, DVD Cabinet Fell over, a few Christmas Decorations too, nothing broken though.

Well glad you are alright. 6.5's can be bad right? Doesn't sound like this one was though.

Yeah, sorry about that. I was with my girlfriend yesterday night, and we got a little over-excited. My bad.;)

Earthquakes are fun!
I lived thru the Loma Prieta quake and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.
It was sureal, I was working the front desk of a physical therapy center. There were 2 people getting massages when it started, they ran out of the building naked wrapped in bedsheets.
Then a lady who walked in after it stopped to get her massage, oblivious to the fact that there had been a major earthquake, she thought it was her car? When the power came back on, the radio was saying, the bay bridge has collapsed! the Nimitz has collapsed! the Marina district is burning down! power is still off to SF!
Then there was the drunk lady from next door who's husband was stranded in SF.
A fun time was had by all!
Glad you are ok man.

I felt a slight tremore down here in Glendale where I work. I remember the big Northridge quake of ten years ago and that was I think 7.0. SPent the day without electricity (most places here went a week, and more, without it.)

in a related note.. I think the earthquake that hit Iran was around a 6.5 as well and it killed 20,000. That is so horrible but the difference in damage to both cities is the infrastructure. Be glad you don't live in hardened mud houses in LA.
