    Default I think there was just an earthquake!

    I live in central NJ and I think we just had an earthquake. The apartment was moving back and forth and the neighbors were outside.

    5.8 magnitude quake in Mineral Va. Felt up to New York!!!

    My Mom's phones are out, my dogs freaked out, and it felt like the second floor was going to shake loose. WOW!

    I hope everyone is OK! We had one here, too! They are pretty rare in Colorado. It was about two hours from here.

    Oddly enough my one cat was supper friendly before it happened. Before it happened here my cable kept on going out. See that it is on the news and can't believe how long it stretched.

    Nothing like getting your heart rate up then taking 50 floors of steps for aerobic activity!

    Amazingly, all the cubes in our office were spared damage except the coworker who was working from home today...

    If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.

    Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

    Wow, earthquake today, and it looks like they may get clobbered with a hurricane this weekend. Not a good time to be in the area!

    I'm glad everyone's safe.
