Wow, we felt a small earthquake!
Epicenter was Decatur TN.
4.4 tremor but it shook us here in the N GA mountains pretty good!
Cockatoos don't like their cages shaking!

I did too, I'm in Soddy Daisy, TN, just outside of Chattanooga. Even woke my wife up and she asked what was that. Told her it was an earthquake.

We're near the Ranger Camp, Merril.
Sometimes the Ospreys and Blackhawks fly over and shake the house(yes, they hug the trees).
Except this time there was no whine of the engines!

Just posted also. Yes woke me up. In Acworth/Woodstock/Kennesaw area. Seems City of Atlanta felt also. My neighbor just texted me to verify he wasn’t crazy. Twitter is very talkative right now. #Earthquake.

Well, somebody else ought to have them for awhile. Wink We had spell of them for a time, though they seem to have tapered off, thanks to Oklahoma changing how they reinject ground water from oil drilling. The first one I experienced I thought was interesting, however the shine was rubbed off the thing pretty quickly and I got rather tired of them. I tell people that I’m still waiting for one to occur during a thunderstorm, that it would put that special Kansas stamp on things. Hope there wasn’t any damage down there.

I'm in Commerce GA for business and didn't feel anything. They are talking about it in Atlanta so apparently some of them felt it. Crazy to happen around here.

We're about 5 miles south of Fayetteville, Ga.
My wife was awake and she felt it and heard the house making some noise.

I slept through it.

I'm in Spartanburg, SC. Felt it about 4:15 a.m. Convinced myself it was a plane from GSP going over the house and went back to sleep.

It woke me up here in Cleveland TN...said to myself "earthquake" (I've felt a few while living here over the years) and rolled back over...had a few pictures that were catty-wompus on the walls when I got up but that was all.

Train how you intend to Fight

Remember - Training is not sparring. Sparring is not fighting. Fighting is not combat.

”9-1-1, what are you reporting?”

“My house was just shaken and it woke me up! Was there an earthquake?”

”Yes there was, is anyone injured or do you have any serious structural damage?”

“No, we’re fine. Just wanted to find out if it was an earthquake”

”OK, sir yes it was”

“Is there going to be another one?”

”Eventually...”





What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???
