It was in Chino Hills, far from here. Thank God.
WTF is a jackalope? This isn't the swamp so be careful.
And where the hell is Chino Hills? Is that where they are trying to ban fast food restaurants? |

A 5.8 is 1.6x's the intensity of a 5.6. So every tenth counts. 
Only felt one quake in 13 years in CA (though admittedly, Sacramento hardly sees any action). I was on the phone with my wife, who was about 10 miles away at the time. I said, "Whoa, what was that?" About 5 seconds later, she felt it, too. |

Welcome to the Midwest honey. And hell, we even had a little earthquake of our own this year. A 5.2 to be exact.
You know what...that happened on April 18. I went to St. Louis that afternoon and raced River to River on the 19th. That was really when my knee started to crap out on me. And all of that was in Southern Illinois where the men are men and the sheep are scared.
I blame it on the freak Midwestern Earthquake. It all makes sense now. |

I love a good tornado. (Hey, bubba, go get the video camera...) |
