damn that was fun! white folks love the adrenaline I guess. I'm in Burbank and all is good. Moderate shaker. I was right on top of the Northridge epicenter, so this was just a teaser. The Northridge quake was nearly 130 times stronger...

he stood around for while then decided to go home to go "check on it"! Hopefully he meant his home and not his pants!!!

I work in Yorba Linda (very close to the epicenter). I was on my way to lunch in the car. The car swayed really hard with no wind around so we knew it was an earthquake. All the street lights were bouncing all over the place for quite a while after the quake too. I was also RIGHT under the 91 fwy overpass on Wier Canyon .

The co-workers we were meeting for lunch at Macaroni Grill were all standing in the parking lot because as they were seated, bottles flew everywhere and they evacuated the building. We ended up eating next door at Islands.

After lunch, we went back to discover the office was evacuated as well because of broken water pipes, so now I have the afternoon off! Crazy out there!
