Rick, Deb.... you guys just feel that quake? That was cool never felt a quake before.
It was supposed to be north of DC, 5.5 on the scale, so it may have been stronger near Rick and Bryan.
Hope everyone is ok.

I know it isn't as bad as other parts of the country are used to but that was pretty crazy coming from someone that has never felt an earthquake before.

I was sitting in my office in Maryland and it felt like the building was coming down. Didn't like that feeling one bit!

Felt it here in Greenville, SC. I was at the desk in a high raise and my chair moved 1/4 inch back and forth.

Didn't feel this one but have felt plenty of others as I sit dang near on top of the New Madrid fault.  It is about 200 years overdue to really let loose.

The National media coverage on this one is hilarious.  They are just begging and digging for a fatality or building collapse to grab hold of.  Sorry 'bout that, better luck next time.  My favorite is one of the networks showed a video of the Prez out on the golf course taking a phone call.  The talking head said "We now know that the President has been fully briefed on the earthquake because we have video of him taking a call while on the golf course." Really?  You have no idea who was on the other end of the phone or what was being said.  Most likely that conversation was "D@mn it Michelle. I said I wanted the chocolate chip ice cream". ;D

Glad that everyone is unharmed.
