    That's right we had a very rare earthquake here in the Mid-Atlantic region.

    And, as usual, I slept right through it. My days and nights are really screwed up.

    The reports are that it was a 5.8 or 5.9 quake. You couldn't tell that here. Absolutely no damage. Not even a minor landslide in the piles of stuff that are all over my house. The cats cause more problems than the quake did. But, then I am about 150 miles away from the epicenter. Baltimore City did have some minor damage. There are a lot of old brick houses in the city. Some of these experienced portions of their walls colapsing. No injuries have been reported.

    There have been a few aftershocks reported. But, they were much smaller. We didn't feel a thing with them.

    Well, I think it is time that we better be prepared.

    There's a four-foot crack in the Washington Monument and some of the spires fell off the National Cathedral. But otherwise no significant damage.

    Heard that on the news this morning...

    And, after that hurricane Irene came to call.

    Exactly three days and forty five minutes without power.
