Just heard there was a 4.5 earthquake down in SoCal. Are all our Los Angeles forumers alright? What was it like down there?

4.5 is small. I wonder why the news makes a big deal out of that?

Hillarious.

Actually a 4.5 is not nearly as bad as being beaten up by a deer. LOL

For this newbie to SoCal, that earthquake jolted me off the couch last night and scared the crap out of me!! I'd hate to know what a "real" one felt like....

They weren't making a huge deal, I just heard it mentioned on the radio...as SilkCity said, if a 4.5 hit Boston or NYC, we would have shat ourselves.

4.7 actually (apparently the .2 makes a difference in strength).

This is probably my favorite youtube video. I bet Billy Joe Bob thinks twice before trying to hide and bag one again. LOL (Kroger has a meat department, Billy).

Deer = 1, Billy Jo bob = 0
