Earthquake!

[Red Arrow]

Earthquakes in Oklahoma, tornados, thunderstorms, flash floods and an election today in a year with -30 temps and an entire summer over 100. I'm telling you; Mother nature does not like it when you smear margerine on her muffin.

It's George W Bush's fault.

Edit: fix typo

Had another 3.6 today, less than an hour ago.  Only a few seem to have felt it here (I didn't).  Seems like the aftershocks are wearing off.  All of em are coming from one small area, kinda scary



Wonder if Doomsday is buried there or something

Lex Luthor is testing his equipment to slide the coast of California into the ocean.

Maybe they are all pre-shocks...
Sorry, just wanted to distract you from the asteroid that's supposed to pass between us and the moon tonight.

I'm more concerned about that since I plan on being somewhere between the moon and New York City.

I thought that was supposed to be tomorrow?  The article I read said the ninth, but didn't say the time. 

meh, could be pre, but since they have been decreasing in strength (so far) since the 5.6, I'll accept the idea that they are after

We dodged the rock.

WASHINGTON -- You won't want to close your eyes, you won't want to fall asleep. If scientists are wrong, not even Ben Affleck can save you.

An asteroid the size of the U.S.S. Nimitz passed by Earth Tuesday. NASA's Near-Earth Object Program says the impact of the rock, dubbed 2005 YU55, would equal a 4,000-megaton blast and create 70-foot high tsunami waves, CBS News reports.

That's near 200,000 times more powerful than the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima or Nagasaki.

NASA predicted the murderous cosmic body will miss our planet by about 202,000 miles. That's about 0.85 times the distance to the moon, NASA says. The last time an asteroid this size came this close to Earth was in 1976, and it shouldn't happen again until 2028 -- provided we're still here.

The asteroid passed by around 6:28 p.m. Tuesday.

The frogs are due in at 3:00pm on Wednesday.  The locusts should arrive around 6:00pm on Thursday.

Which time zone?  I want to be ready.

Central time.

4:00 pm and 7:00 pm Eastern time.  Let the left coast figure it out for themselves.

Think they can without some help?

Who cares?


I actually do like Oregon, quite a bit, though, so maybe we can help them.
