I could be wrong, but I think we just had an earthquake
Just got out of the shower about 10 minutes ago, was going downstairs to get clothes, and the house started shaking. Slowly at first, then it sounded like hail the size of basketballs were hitting the roof.
Then, about 10 seconds after it started, it quit. Unreal. My In-laws, who live 6 doors down felt it as well and called, so I know I'm not still dreaming..... |

Nope, it was an earthquake.
Just came on TV and said it was centered about 125 miles east of STL. I thought he said 5.4 in magnitude. |

WOW!!! Wonder when KS will get theirs. We have a fault line here that nobody knew about until after the San Fran quake.

And i thought it was just me. I woke up earlier, had a cup of coffee, then all of a sudden the house was shaking around for about 20 seconds. Then stopped.
I thought it was real windy outside or something. Checked outside and it was calm. I thought i was losing it. |

I looked when He broke the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became like blood.

I didn't feel it as I was getting ready to leave for work, but a coworker said his wife called and said she and the kids were awakened by it. Scared them pretty good - lasted about eight seconds. They live down near Canton, Il (Boomertown). I'm north of Peoria.

don't worry, it's just everyone's collective anger coming to a boil over Carl shopping Jared Allen around.
