Sitting in my office, all of the sudden everything starts shaking..waoaaah. First one I've ever actually felt. At my wife's job they evacuated the building! (probably overkill, but still...we aint used to this stuff )

Yo, MD just got it too! I was honestly terrified... At first I thought it was construction then the WHOLE HOUSE started shaking. I just woke up, man! I'm in my undies! I'm completely unprepared for this kind of thing .

My wife just texted me to say she felt an earthquake. We live on Long Island in NY. No news report yet that I can find...I didn't believe her.

TB the latest news source!!!

Me too.


I was on my laptop in the bedroom loading some songs on my Droid and the bed started to undulated... then I saw the TV was doing the same. Normally that's how I roll but my wife is at work downtown.



Whenever something weird like this happens, I have no idea why, it just makes me calm. It was actually pretty cool.


My son told me that the quake hit at the exact same time he noticed the movie "2012" just started on TV.
