don't be scarred

have cosmetic surgery

edit - hey you just fixed your typo
edit edit - or did i just misread your post?


anyway, can't say i've ever experienced an earthquake, but isn't 2.8 quite a small one?

Not if you live in the 4th FLOOR! seriusly... why me?

just checked CNN...............nothing about an earthquake

you can go to sleep now

The small ones happen all the time. Here's a live map. Save any fear you have for the 8 and 9.0's that will hit some day.

a. move to a single story

b. get your earthquake preparedness kit stocked up

c. if you're not going to do a., then I'd invest in one of those slides
like the airlines have, for a quick get away.

d. stay away from bridges, power lines, gas lines, nuclear plants.

2.8 isn't as bad if you're closer to the ground. When I lived in Costa Mesa, we had a condo where the living areas was 1 story above the ground level garage... every tiny little quake was left very strongly, and when we had some big ones, you could hear them rolling and rumbling towards you.

I never did get used to those things!

We had a 2.something here in virginia, but i didn't feel it cause i was outside.

2.8? Don't you remember the Big Bear and Wittier quakes on the 90's? The 6.8-7.0 range?

Heck I know some people who fart and cause a 2.8.

feel bad for ya guys...i would fel like sscared shit myself....

Didn't you read the mandatory California resident manual.

Page 1. Place head between knees.

page 2. Kiss your ass goodbye!

If this doesn't work please check out and return manual while passing through the eastern California state border.

Stop your whining 2.8 is nothing if ya are a native Californian!!!
Where were ya during Whittier narrows or the last time The San Andres came to life???.....if its not over 5.0 it ain't no earthquake....It's LIFE in California!!!!
...remember as Bond would say "Shaken not stirred"........

Post again when the BIG ONE HITS ..............

Seriously though hope all is well with you and your nerves!
