You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Bernie,
ReplyDeleteI was outside and never felt a thing. Those inside came out and said what was that. I said, what was what?

I was outside on my deck when it trembled pretty hard. I just sat there and it stopped. Earl slept through it.
ReplyDeleteTrish
it was merely an extra 10,000 illegals crossing into PA.
ReplyDeleteYep. Sway left and right. Third floor. Hard to wrap your brain around at first. Most buildings on lower campus of Lehigh U. evacuated for about 45 minutes. Funny, because of your sinkhole article today, that's the first thing I thought of. The building's goin' down! Weird sensation. Now I can cross earthquake off my bucket list.
ReplyDeleteI work on the 4th floor of a 5 floor office building in Morristown, NJ
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought they were unloading the freight elevator (low rumbling first). Then the coat hanger on my coat hook starting swinging back and forth, and I felt nauseous. About 30 seconds of floor rolling and then over. eek!
I was on the road at the time and my truck already shakes quite a bit, so I did not notice it.
ReplyDeleteI was upstairs in our two-story frame townhouse, and at first, I thought somebody was stomping around on the roof, so darn hard the walls were shaking. I went outside, front and back, nobody on the roof, nobody around at all. Got creeped out and checked the trapdoor up to the attic, checked all the closets...Then I heard the on-air host on WDIY 88.1 FM grumbling that their building was shaking, down on the south side...About that time, the first reports came out on Drudge, so then I relaxed a bit, no spooks in or on the house, just an earthquake. Now for the hurricane coming Saturday....
ReplyDeleteI beleive it was the president's approval ratings crashing.

ReplyDeleteNorthampton County Press reported today the tremors felt throughout the east coast were caused by councilman Ron Angle dropping his wallet at the local convenience store.
ReplyDeleteJohn Stoffa states Northamptons Emergency Management Teams will be assessing county owned buildings during the next few day for structural damage.
Mr Stoffa also states at this time, the only damage reported
was to the Gracedale Nursing Home
and crews were on the way to demolish the building.
Larry Otter and the silly guy in the dress reported "O'Hare will pay for this."
Eck, That was funny!
ReplyDeleteEarthquake?
ReplyDeleteSaw Wolf Blitzer on CNN asking people where they were when it hit. Just once I want someone to say they were on the toilet.
I was on the road and missed the whole thing. All we need now is a Tsunami warning and Hurricane Irene hitting D.C. on Saturday. It could happen!
Let`s get Earl to high ground and safety!
