Little temblor rumbled through at 1:12.
Made the chandelier swing a bit.
I'm guessing 4.3 on the old richter.

It was the first one that I have actually felt. Shook the sofa I was sitting in. Weird feeling.
It woke me from a deep sleep... here at work. 
Ha! Das rascal.
So, you all finally voted in the union...OUTSTANDING!

I just thought it was the DJIA, taking its Daily Plunge...
Didn't feel this one, but my girls did. They called, all excited.
I was in the San Francisco one, 7.2 on the richter. That was a lot of fun.

I'm thinking you are talking about the world series quake in 89, that was adjusted to a 6.7 if I remember right. the one I remember the most was the one in southern cal. in 92. not talked about much because it happened in the high desert (Landers) I lived 20 miles from the epicenter in Apple Valley and I still remember to this day 4:58 am a Sun. morning I had just woke up and was sitting on the side of the bed when it hit... an 8.5 when they first talked about it then they moved it down to a 7.9 years later....scared the living shit out of me! when your walls are bowing in and out like waves in the ocean and there is nothing you can do for a 2 minutes it makes you think!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had an aunt and uncle who were violently tossed out of bed in the 1994 Northridge quake. As they laid on the floor looking up, St. Elmo's Fire slowly danced its way across the bedroom ceiling and out into the hallway. If it had been just my uncle that had seen it, I would have been skeptical. But that they both witnessed it convinced me. I went on to study St. Elmo's Fire, but it is still a mysterious phenomenon.
Iasooner1 grew up in "Spooklight" territory in NE Oklahoma. But I'd write off any claims that he saw them as hallucinations. That goes for Fitty too.

Ummmm, you'd have to write me off as well. Saw it on the first trip I made out there as a freshman at NEO. I was basically grabbed the night before school started by our Heavyweight named Todd Bullock of Union, and a huge football player there at NEO. Turned out to be super cool guys, and Todd's one of the nicest human beings on the planet. But at that moment I thought I was getting taken to the countryside to be beaten and left for dead.
Never saw it again after that night. I keep telling my girls we're going out there for the night to see if we can see it. Maybe we do that this week.

While it's true that I spent my first year after HS, studying feverishly at NEO I actually never made it out to search for Spooklight near Miama.
My folks moved from Tulsa to Miama after I had bought my first house in Tulsa, I enjoy going to see the folks there; one of their employees is a Wardog of the same class as Steve Owens (my OU treasures link)
Miami is best known these days for having the big, fresh mushroom Plant (J & R) as well as a good pecan processing biz that's new. Oh and about 7 different Indian tribe's Casinos...

Hey, that's really cool Micco. And I believe you. Did it make the hair stand up on the back of your neck?
Yeah, saw a weird light one night in 1967, Christmas eve.
On reflection I decided it was the 4 way, purple micro dot I'd injested.
Those sixties were something else again.

Only quaking in my house has been from the wife. The other night I thought I heard her say "Please get it on with me. Please get it on all night." When I arrived in my cape and underwear she informed me that what she actually said was "Please turn it on for me. Please turn on the night light."

The last part was embarrassing, but I'll include it. I also thought she said "I want you to rip and break my shit." It was actually "I don't want to trip and break my hip."
She says I need hearing aids. I say she needs to quit mumbling.

It actually made me feel much more comfortable. I was sure when these behemoths grabbed me on a Sunday night at around 9:00 pm to go look for a magical spook light, two huge guys that I'd never met before ever, that they were going to kill me and drop me off on the side of the road somewhere. Seeing the spook light made me believe they weren't going to go all West Virginia on me.
If she claims you mumble, there's nothing like some "motor-boating" to set her straight!
(Gotta play that man-card in situations such as these)
I could see you saying something like this.............Here's you a gif...Well not really, breaks the rules of the board..............
I wish I knew what you youngins' are talking about. But don't worry. I am hitting the like button anyway.

She mumbles. I rumbles. Until she cuts the fuel...
