Mousekateer Roll Call - Earthquake style

[LavCat]

It's nice to know we in New Jersey are safe from the hurricane.

Too bad that didn't work out so well, huh? Hope you're safe down there. Up here in Mass. the biggest concerns will be in Worcester (where I'm predicting tornados), Springfield (still so much debris to clean up from the tornados!), and Cape Cod (they're F-ed). I'm smack dab between Boston and Worcester, so the winds shouldn't be too bad (40 - 50 m.p.h.), but the rain will be a concern for flooding, and uprooting trees. We'll see what happens.

I've lived through... 3 or 4 earthquakes here on the East Coast, and the only one I could possibly have felt I was too young to remember (1984? 1983? Sometime in there). The rest I've never felt - so no, Bolty, you're not the only one disappointed.

Stay safe east coasters.

I guess that means it was not divine retribution after all. So much for that theory.

Irene has passed us now. I just got one of the two computers up (the other is dead and I have to find out why). Our power was out for eleven hours. I missed most of my dailies yesterday. Other than that things are OK right here. Unfortunately I had a phone call that a tree fell on the building where I work, causing structural damage. My email is down (see above) and I don't know what other reports of devastation there may be. We had a lot of wind and rain.

P.S. It's still a bit breezy. I cracked open the door and things are blowing around inside.
