So there I was out hiking in the hills with my dog when he started acting "squirrelly". We stopped and he literally burrowed under the low branches of a tree. Within a minute the LA quake rolled under us, literally lifting an irrigation pipe on the trail out of the ground (but not breaking it.)Coming from the land where the earth is a plate and the local garden variety snake will kill you, this "roller" was a first for me.
Heading to the mall now for a change of boxer shorts.

Thx to all for responding.

On the lighter side. I remember wakeing up about 5 mins before the Northridge quake to have a smoke.

After an eternity and the shakeing was over I looked up at the ceiling and said.

OK I can take a hint ... I'LL QUIT SMOKING !!! :p

You guys are all right. I just Googled "California" and you're still attached to the North American continent...

BTW, I grew up in Alaska on the "Rim of Fire" and I can understand exactly what your experiencing...

The biggest aftershock so far 3.8.

And yes cellphone probs. And I thought they would be better than landlines during this.
