  I got a kick out of how JWs were called "model citizens".

  You know, if I didn't pay any taxes, I could make a big show out of contributing to the public good too.

  sitting here catching up on why the haitians deserved to suffer when i tremor jolted the house.

  funny how i can kind of tell the direction they come from / go to by which side of the house creaks first/last.

  checking google live results feed i see i was not the only one who felt it, though i don't see it yet on the quakes sites i occassionally check.. .

  It was centered in Baja, so I guess only we in extreme southern Cali felt the zing: http://quake.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Maps/117-33.html

  That's very interesting ... somehow those pretty sizeable miniquakes over the last few decades escaped my notice.

  And no, I moved from the other coast here ... New Jersey. I've always heard NYC is ripe for a large quake some day, but NJ ground doesn't move around much, as far as I can remember. Hurricanes and blizzards are more the thing there.

  immersed in fireflies and enchanting lakeside glows, is worth a monstrous toil through grayed out city lights and cigarette butts scattered round listless strangers scurrying to and fro.

  I think individuals are allowed to write poetic words now and then, or so I hear. Maybe this explains the mysterious posts.

  I remember when the 2007 quake there was in the news, and the pictures of damage. I don't think I'd ever heard of seismic activity in England before that in my life.

  Since I moved here (southern California) in 2001 I've only felt maybe half a dozen of them. Never more than a jolt, like someone jumping up and down on the floor. Once though, I could swear I heard what I guessed was the sound of the wave zooming along the telephone/electrical wires outside ... kind of like a "zing" crossed with the sound sound of a bullet ricochet from an old Western.

  Ack .. if a mod could move this to "friends" or somewhere appropriate like that, I'd appreciate it. :)

  ... Hey, if you can have snow threads, I can have a quake thread. That's about as close to weather as we get here in socal. ;)

  I have to agree with changeling.

  I started reading and found the content very thought-provoking, but my eyes literally could not keep track of where I was without any paragraphs. Please click "edit" and add some spacing when you get a chance.

  Hello everyone

  some of you may recognize me from jwr and jws where i am the only resident "jezebel".

  my mother decided we were to become witnesses when i was 3 years old.

  my father disagreed, they divorced.. the "friends" set her up with a "nice new brother" and they married that same year.
