Not a word about untruthful. Now you have learned something. No need to thank me.
 
I have friends who were doing experiments in a lab when it happened. ****ed everything up lol.

High school students of mine once had a nice mess in the chem lab after an earthquake a couple of years ago. Glad I am not a chem teacher at times like that... what a mess...

I felt it. So far there have been five reported aftershocks, the 4.5 (if that's indeed the one that i felt) happened in the early morning last night (1 or 2AM).
 
We're really having bad luck...now we're going to get soaked by Hurricane Irene (which will probably be a tropical storm by the time it gets to us). When is the last time Washington DC got either an earthquake or a tropical storm...let alone both in one week? God must really be pissed about the debt ceiling agreement. :lol:

Next week it's locusts and toads.

the debt ceiling was more frustrating than either of these things. I can handle earthquakes and high winds and some rain. I can't stand people being morons.

School got evacuated and Im relegated to world of warcraft for the next 4 days.
 
Part of me wants to laugh because you're joking. Part of me wants to hang my head because my wife had a professor who actually attempted to suggest that the monument was a racist symbol because the top plus the windows is meant to look like a klan hood....

Sigh.


Yeah, th quake was definitely an unique experience
Did you see the photos of the cracks near the top of the monument?
