It sounds like your cat has been surfing ETS, at night, after y'alve (I think I just invented a new word?), gone to bed. Keep an eye on your computer's browsing history.

I'm glad to hear that y'all are alright and I hope the rest of the affected Californio's are alright and whole as well!!

There was SO a quiver in San Diego! I felt my chair "luff in the breeze" for a good 5 seconds. Barely.

Just as an aside, I grew up (and my parents live) within a mile of Chino Hills. Of course, the range of hills is several miles long, so who knows where in that stretch it was. But, my parents sure felt it more than me!

Time to check the missing pets column, just to see how many cats and dogs have decided to bug out. Hopefully the 5.6 was the big event and not a foreshock for the big one on Thursday late morning (highest tide for a good 6 months). It might be useful keeping an eye on the sky as well as anything unusual may just give a few hours or minutes warning.

As of 15:00, still no injuries reported, only minor damages. Several businesses have closed due to damage. Local train service, Metrolink is back up and running as are all freeways.

My two greyhounds barely woke up...so much for the PAWS. (Pets Advance Warning System)

You're right on the money about that.

I wonder what Bob Berklund has to say since he is one of the Geologists for Los Angeles County area, and checks the Lost/Missing Classifieds each day.

If you listen to Coast to Coast AM radio, he may be a guest during the 1st hour, tonight.

Neither did my Akita, Kobe, who is named for the Kobe, Japan, quake in '95.

Just about 15 minutes before the Northridge quake, I woke up to go pee and stepped over our previous Akita twice. She was sawing logs. I don't know about other pets, but it seems that Akitas are useless as an early warning system.

I'm going down to FOX and make some REAL news. We've seen BREAKING NEWS all afternoon and the same footage of 6-7 soft drinks on some convenience store floor.Preempt Judge Judy and all kinds of women act like it is a disaster.

That's it...
I'm not going to well-wish any of you until I hear of like a 10.OhNo on the Richter.

*howls with laughter*

And what is our newest four legged member's screen name? How far had he gotten on dragging the litter box over? *grins*

We felt quite a good jolt in my office in Yorba Linda. Went home when I had the opportunity. Aside from lamps, photos, etc knocked over I lost a plastic bottle of polish and two MGDs in the garage. All in all not too bad. I do miss those two beers though.
