Hi `Matt, how close are you from there ? Did you feel it ?
You didn't lose your Monte did you ? (I sure hope it didn't hurt anyone) Keep us updated...

Tragic nature occurrence's seem to be happening more on Planet `Earth...Maybe Earth is mad , at the way we are treating it ?

Wish you safety where you are ? What if ? > WoW <

80 miles roughly and yeah you could feel and hear it. Apparently it was felt as far as 170 miles away and some reported a pretty good duration from it. Significant magnitude for this area but nothing bad. Was interesting though.

Hi `Matt,
Thanks for your update
Maybe it was just a WARNING
Our Planet `Earth is fragile > Just like `Human Life...

Maybe it was a reminder to get out there & enjoy your Monte Carlo S.S. & to Celebrate `LIFE >NOW< What `if ? >Really ?

What time does your party start ? I'm going to party Now, just in case something bad happens (LOL)

Wish everyone a safe eve/weekend/Life >Get out there & enjoy >Everything> What `if ? >Party NOW

Evening everyone!

I was awaken during the noon hour to feel the house shaking slightly, and some of the stuff on my dresser rattling. I thought it was just a truck or something driving by, and went back to sleep. I wasn't completely awake, just like half asleep. I was actually annoyed at my dresser for making noise.

It didn't occur to me until I woke up this afternoon that maybe it was a mild earthquake. But what the hell? We don't get earthquakes in Michigan and southern Ontario. I guess we do.

Evening everyone
Congrats Barbara on your new position with the company

My band played last night and had the best night we have ever had. We had the entire bar dancing and even the owner was out on the floor shaking her stuff lol. We tried to stop playing at the time designated by the bar and people kept yelling for us to keep playing, the owner brought over a round of drinks for all of us, even though I don't drink but the singer was happy to take care of mine lol, so we ended up playing an extra half hour and even then they didn't want us to leave. One of the city counsel members from Kingston was in attendance and asked us to play the blues fest in kingston this summer, he was very impressed with out performance and we are taking this as a great honor as they usually only get big name bands to come in for it and this was just after our first set. So was a little slow in getting up this morning lol

On call so not up to too much this evening probably gonna watch a movie, debating between "get hard" and "jupiter ascending" always a tough call between funny and action lol

Hope everyone enjoys their day
