Whole lot of shak'en going on

Postby paul » July 29th, 2008, 8:53 am

11:45 PST WOW!

Earth quake epi center was only about 15 miles from our home....5.7 on the rickter scale. No damage here but really an erie feeling when the floors of your house start doing the wave.

This was the strongest I have felt since being back in California 1996. Not the strongest to hit but this is the closest to the epicenter I have ever been. what was that I was taught " earth quakes in diver places " I always thought that meant Tenn or KTy :lol:

Glad you're okay, hope this isn't a precursor to something bigger.

I've probably told this before, but I know someone who, after a large tornado was in the news last year, was discussing it with me and --- with a straight face --- told me that "they said it was a mach 5 on the richter scale." I had to leave the room because I couldn't keep one.
:lol:

Ditto. Well, 15 miles from work.

You know, there's not much of anything better than the ground rolling under your feet to bring home the fact that you're in a 40 year old cinder block converted warehouse with a 2 ton ac unit above your head. :)
For the truth that lies at the heart of theology is not something there to be discovered, but something, or rather someone, to whom we must surrender. The mystery of faith is not ultimately something that invites our questioning, but something that questions us.
