SS_bnoon_SS Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 I'm a pretty light sleeper, so it must not have shaken Iowa to hard, but people were freaking out about it this morning saying that they felt it here in Des Moines freaking Iowa... I didn't know a moderate 5.4 would travel so far. I'm just pissed I missed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I would too if it were "the big one", but this is the first time it's happened since I've been alive (that I know of at least) and I missed it.

BRAD Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Im an electrition for wal-mart remodels and we decided not to work lastnight so I was just laying around the hotel Ive been staying at south of Nashville and felt it. As long as it was I thought I was feeling stuff, then a hour later it was a headline on the news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzer Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 I'm in MO and I didn't notice it. What time was it at? Yea I've been through a few in the Cali days. Sylmar, Whitter were the two biggest ones I can remember. Nothing like making a one hop over to the door jamb and stand there hearing sh*t falling out of your cabinets, well some of them. One may empty all contents and another may not even move a dish or whatever. I prefer Earthquakes over Tornados or Hurricanes. Quakes are wham bam here I am with the other you have that waiting period as to if your going to lose all your chit or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear ya Bro. I just had my first experience with tremors here in Guam last month. Kinda scary as you don't have any warning they are coming. I rode out Katrina, and I'll tell ya its not something I'll do again. Almost three years now and we're still not done fixing the house.

I'll take earthquakes any day. when we were having all the quakes out here in the 90s after a while you knew how big it was by the feel, and you would say, it's a 4.5, and just roll over and go back to sleep i feel that a earthquake still dose less damage over all..
