after about 5+ years of calm earth, we finally got a moderate earthquake this morning of 5.6 magnitude. shortly after, a magnitude 3.2 aftershock followed. no major damage or casualties. earthquakes are always fun rides tho. who felt it? im about 10 miles south of downtown los angeles. its funny, i was watching the kingdom and right as the credits started to roll the quake started. intense movie, followed by a fairly decent quake..... exciting morning so far =)

See, when I read the title I thought it meant a combined earthquake + drought.
Good for you, I guess?

we so cal folks live in fear of "the big one" after a few years of quiet soil. a moderate quake here and there keeps us sane, as the longer we go without a quake the higher the probability of a high magnitude 6+ quake increases. the last major one, the northridge quake about 10 years ago, killed like 70 ppl and caused 10s of millions of dollars in damage.

I was (am) at work when it happened and didnt even realize it til my co worker came running out of his office like there was a bat or the biggest spider ever in there the I felt the gentle rolling motion.
I personally want a bigger one just so we dont have to worry about it anymore.
