It's fine, but his one was scary. Of course, the initial report was 7.1 within fifteen SECONDS of it happening. That was not accurate, however, and whoever is releasing those early figures should be fired. 6.9 - just downgraded. But that's much stronger than yesterday's. I actually have a headache now.

I agree that this one was scary. It seemed rather long to me, too. The building I live in was retrofitted for earthquake safety just six (?) months ago, and yet there was quite a bit of swaying. I'm on the second floor.

Many years ago after the Northridge quake a friend who hadn't grown up here was quite spooked. She'd sleep with a pair of jeans, shoes, and a top next to her bed. That actually makes a lot of sense--you don't want to be without clothes! I may just do something like that for a few days in case of aftershocks.

Yes. Calm vibes for all in LA and environs.

Watching the original cut of Red River. Have never seen this movie. Interesting that everyone cites The Searchers as having Wayne in an unsympathetic role. He's every bit as unlikable in this one, too, though his character seems to be softened up somewhat toward the end.

More people on facebook reported filling dizzy & nauseous.

Most people on Facebook live for melodrama. There have been two horrendous earthquakes in my lifetime - early 70s and early 90s - THOSE were earthquakes, and they caused much harm and devastation, as you know. When I read posts on Facebook that say, "My pool water was sloshing!" I just want to, well, you know...

Many people are saying their going to stock up on supplies. Good luck at the markets tomorrow, because hysteria fuels hysteria. There will be no batteries, flashlights, and especially water. Mark my words.

I am not sitting around in the nude.

I am listening to a set of New York Philharmonic performances mostly radio broadcasts from the 40s and early 50s.

How can we still be on page five?

bk · « **Reply #134 on:** July 05, 2019, 11:09:12 PM »

Page five is unseemly.

bk · « **Reply #135 on:** July 05, 2019, 11:09:23 PM »

Page five is endless.

bk · « **Reply #137 on:** July 05, 2019, 11:09:56 PM »

How can page five just go on and on with no end in sight. Gaslighting?

jan · « **Reply #138 on:** July 05, 2019, 11:11:36 PM »

Um, someone is doing some gaslighting here - how can we still be on page five?

Where are bad boys TCB and George.

Most unseemly.

bk · « **Reply #146 on:** July 06, 2019, 12:01:55 AM »

Okay, this has entered stupid territory. I myself have made enough posts on this page for two pages.

bk · « **Reply #147 on:** July 06, 2019, 12:02:01 AM »

And yet, here we are.

bk · « **Reply #148 on:** July 06, 2019, 12:02:22 AM »

This is unseemly.
