Yeah, I'm starting a thread about it. Anyone else watch the activity on a regular basis? I do, and it seems we have been having some big ones on the left coast. @GreatwhiteNorth did you feel that 7.8 off Kodiak? Any local damage? We've had a few close to six off of the Oregon/CA coast right on the Juan de Fuca. I sent my wife to work with a walkie talkie in her purse. I also bought her a raft, life jacket, pump, and oars she keeps in her trunk. We have a meeting place.

Yeah, it woke me up & I promptly dozed off when it was done only to be awakened by the Tsunami sirens screaming- we bundled up the grand kids, grabbed the dogs & GTFO.

Had it been a Subduction rather than a Slip strike it would have been much worse.
Some (Dumbass) boat owners in the harbor (who stayed on their boats) reported an approximately 3' outflow & then about a 3' inflow that went through several cycles.

Check out how many we've had since then.

I have been watching at the USGS site. Since the 7.8, there's been about 100 over 4.0. Seems abnormally high for aftershocks, no?

I’ve done like, 20-30 whip-its in about an hour. An earthquake would be like

“WUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUBWUB.”
We used to hit whip its during games of néed for speed. I'll never forget that sound you hear right when you start drooling . I don't even know how to spell the sound but you did a pretty good job.

My wife once asked why the reddi whip cans always run out of gas with stuff still in them. I told her she should check expiration dates closer.

And she bought that line of shit.
I never understood recreational inhalants. The excitatory phase was distressing. I did keep a bottle of Fluothane around for cleaning. It would take grease, goo, permanent marker off anything.

I used to huff when I was slightly dumber and as nutty is it sounds I always heard.
Hut 1, hut 2 as the build came and the top of my head popped off.
I never heard the hike though.

And Im not into football.

the earthquakes are caused by chemtrails and those disgusting homeless people

:lol:

I wondered when you would show up. Why don;t you log into your .nobody. sock and like yourself?

You do remind me though, there is a pretty good doc on chemtrails for those who may not be in a "test market" and think they are not real. I mean when Monsanto has patents for fertilizers that work with aluminum barium in the soil.... educate yourselves.

Seriously, do yourself a favor and watch this:







Now, everyone knows your game..
