Shake, rattle, and roll....

Y'all okay?

Only minor damage here--a few things fell off shelves. Put all horns in cases as a precaution against aftershocks, though...it was a pretty good jolt here at the foot of the Verdugos.

Hold on tight!

Didn't even feel it. I was walking to my car and wondering why several people were looking up (they were watching my office building swaying).

I was in my cubicle chair at the time and didn't even bother to get up... I was thinking though that if the parking garage flattened, at least it would have been the loaner car and not my Smart! Not happy though that my Smart is in the shop for up to two weeks, waiting for a part from Germany. For details, see the Emergency Brake Failure thread...

I was at home and at first thought it was a cat jumping the fence, but it kept going and I was out the front door in a jiffy!
