Earthquake? Earthquake!

So I was just finishing sending an email to Netfirms complaining about my stats not being registered/counted correctly. Hit send. Then the desk and computer started shaking. The leaves of the plants in the office were moving but the window was closed. The cat came running into the room with a very strange look on her face. Five, perhaps ten seconds of confusion. Was it an earthquake? Big truck coming down the road? My house foundation giving away?

I went outside to confer with the neighbours. Not a soul in site. Perhaps it is a truck or the house? Then one neighbour appeared. Nothing she says. Waiting a few more seconds and lo! People started to appear at their doors like turtles popping their heads out for a look. Yep, everyone’s house did the shimmy shimmy shake. Well, except for my next door neighbour. Haven’t felt a tremor in over ten years. A bit exciting. Oh! I forgot to stand in the doorway. Too busy looking at everything moving on its own.

So it will be in the news. Probably centered somewhere south-south-west of my home. That would be the Pennsylvania/Ohio border area. Guess I’ll find that out the news tonight.

You read it here first! Well, if you read nothing else, or watch TV or listen to the radio or have a neighbour. Still, perhaps someone read it here first. I know I did. 😉

    Well, well, the quake was centered along the Quebec/Ontario border. Usually I don’t experience quakes from that region. I guess the seperatists are trying even harder to move away from the rest of Canada.
