Wife is out for the night, so I’ve got DBT up to eleven. Rattled a ornament off the Christmas Tree. Almost sent a PM to Bo.
But at 12:19, the house shook more than my stereo can account for, and the tree is dancin’ and shit is swingin’…
A genuine Mother Fucking Earth Quake!
You heard it hear first. I figure an epicenter somewhere in the eastern sierra, maybe in mono county. Maybe farther north.
My shit is Rockin’!
The news and Google says a 5.7 located in Nevada.
Hawthorne, Nevada to be specific. We couldn’t feel a thing here in Las Vegas but apparently it was felt as far away as Fresno, CA.
A 5.7 and you’re freaking out?
Pfffft. Amateurs.
Come back when you have a real quake.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy up to eleven?
What does that even mean?
I believe he’s referring to Drive-By Truckers.
The couple of after-shocks were pretty cool, too!
Okay, but I’m not bringing any pie.
Nailed it! The louder you play it, the better it gets.
As a native Southern Californian, a 5.7 would be noticed if it happened there. No Big Thang, and no one would freak out over it, but people would talk about it.
Apparently a number of folks felt it here in Sacramento. At our house, all 4 humans, 2 cats, and 2 dogs slept right through it.
I thought it was the Dave Brubeck Trio.
That rare album when one called in sick.
Ms Hook and I felt all three shocks in Carson City. You could hear things rattling around a bit but no damage.
