BIG FUCKING EARTHQUAKE LAST NITE!! -- A 5.1 Caltech said... It was a shocker. Like someone picked up the house and shook it very hard, twice. It was loud and quick, though... We humans have so little control over Mother Nature -- gives you perspective and puts you in your place real quick!

	May you go through the rest of your life thinking that 5.1 is a Big Earthquake...

After watching my local news I learned me that there are a gaZILLION faults out here! I truly had no idea how many... There's a cool website: syzygyjob.org which I check out from time to time EXCEPT FOR! this last one which, (aside to Kid: No. I wasn't "expecting it"! Fuck you anyway...) BECAUSE!!!! Earthquakes aren't anything you ever get used to. For the simple reason they're not predictable in behavoir... Re: Re: Re: oh yeah -- by Wash! on 2001-11-04 06:28:14  |  Reply to this   No way! Palm Springs. Ive been to America twice, and we went there both times. Its probably one of my favourite places in CA! We had a small earthquake when i was there in 1992. Very small though.

I am going to face ALL my fears and jump/leap once again into that great unknown otherwise known as my life. The fears will include (and are not limited to): taking a plane trip, not knowing for how long I will be able to stay/afford where I'm going, and, not really knowing the territory beforehand. I actually work best under this kind of stupidity, though. With any luck I will be changing my life (and location) by Thanksgiving... Yeeeha!
