Well that was number 7. We have been getting earthquakes all day long.

Center seems to be about 20 miles away, up the road at Brawley, we just been rolling around in El Centro, CA.

One little roll after another. Its knocked our cable and internet connections off and on and off.

Had a couple of 5s but mostly just a serious of 2s and 3s. List shows 20+ earthquakes in the last 5 hours, most of them we haven't felt.

Nothing too exciting but you know that if this was LA there would be non stop media interuptions all day long with endless breath taking first person accounts.

Gonna double up on the Melatonine so I can sleep through the rumbles tonight.

This map is kind of funny. Looks like we got all of the earthquakes for the entire 48 today.

He told me earlier that his Chimichanga/extra beans/loadsa beer diet is working perfectly.

Does anyone know if there's any paint left on the buildings in El Centro this evening??

... Frankly, didn't even know what you meant by 'EC'.

It may be time to start thinking about spending cuts to offset any aid you might need so that Ryan can ("in good conscience&quot vote to help....
