Hi everyone. Everything seems to be ok over here in the valley after the Earthquake. The epicenter was Chino Hills about 40 miles from where I am at. I did loose phone service for a bit. I am currently checking out my art systems to make sure they are ok so I will probably log off early tonight to take care of that and some business. Thanks for your concern.

😀 😀 😛

Very^999999999999999 glad that you are OK, Kurch. 😀 😛

Glad to hear from you my friend Hope your art systems are OK 😀 😛

Nobody has yet posted about injuries or damage, so that's good. Jaba and Angel of Darkness also posted that they are fine. 😀 😛

Thanks guys. It will take me awhile to make sure all is well. I really cant afford to replace anything at this point but hopefully all will be ok. 😀 😀 😛

I certainly hope that all your computer equipment came through it undamaged, too. 😀 😛

I've only experienced one earthquake in my life, and it was while I was visiting Los Angeles in 1994. 😱

Went through a few of them in the early 90's when I was based at Norton AFB 😱

😀 😛

 

[kurchatovium]

The 94 one was one of the worst. I have experinced a number of them having lived here all my life. Not sure if you really ever get use to them. LOL 😀 😀 😛

I was in Pasadena at the time at a bridge tournament. The whole room shook, especially the chandeliers. 😱
Nobody at the tournament was hurt, fortunately. 😀 😛

 

[kurchatovium]

I think the 94 one happened at 4:30 am or so. I remember cause I was wating at a bus stop at that ungodly hour. 😀 😀 😛

 

[General Zod]

The worst one I went through was summer of 92 😀 😛

 

[milagros317]

I think it's worse to be asleep and woken up by the shaking. 😱
😀 😛

Got that right I was fast asleep during that 92 quake I remember the bed shaking and thought who the hell is trying to wake me up Then it dawned on me what was happening 😱


I opened the door on my barracks room,and stood in the doorway Supposedly the safest place to be during a quake 😀 😛

 

[milagros317]

Yes, it's quite scary to wake up that way. 😱
😀 😛

Especially when you had imbibed a wee bit before going to bed 😛

😀 😛

 

[milagros317]

Ah, that wasn't the case with me in 1994. I go to sleep sober after playing bridge. 😀 😛

I would imagine you would need to play that game sober to play well 😀 😛

 

[milagros317]

That's exactly right, you have to be alert and at your mental best. 😀 😛

 

[General Zod]

The only card games I ever was halfway good at was Uno,War,and Go Fish 😀 😛

 

[milagros317]

I've played all of those, too. 😀 😛
Haven't played Uno since my nieces were young.
