Magnitude 5.8 earthquake shakes Virginia, D.C. and New York. My friend in Western Mass felt in...not here. White House was evacuated http://abovethelaw.com/2011/08/the-d-c-earthquake-of-2011/
http://whitewomenblackmen.com/forum/showthread.php?p=569017#post569017 It originated in Virginia, but felt in those other places. My whole building was shaking for like 10 seconds.
LOL, that was what I was telling these cats, shit I'm a New Yorker. Muggings, dirty water hot dog stands, crowded subways and buses, cabs ignoring me as a black man, etc I can deal with. I'm not kosher with the earth shaking beneath me. :shock:
West coasters like myself know a thing or two about an earthquake. I can imagine it must of been a new experience for a lot of East coasters.
I felt it here on Long Island as well. It it was the first time I ever experienced something like that.
Supposedly, people felt it in Buffalo...I never did. However, GEICO was 15 minutes north of us, and about 25 from Buffalo, and THEY felt it. Makes no sense.
I'll post here what I put in the NY tremor thread: Dear East Coasters, MS tremor has been very bad today. My sincere apologies. Love, Pixie
