Man, when you're sitting on top of them even the small ones seem a lot bigger. Last night at 1:22 we had a 3.1 that woke everyone up then just two minutes later we had a 4.0 and that one got the adrenalin pumpin. Man, I hate those things.

Didn't feel anything out here in Westminster. Maybe I slept through it.

I like the small ones. They're like Earth-Surfing.

Mike lives in Fontana...I'm in Rancho Cucamonga.

It woke me up....both of them. I was waiting for the magnitude to get a little stronger before I went for the doorway. Must have shook me up a little bit because I had to go to the bathroom after that.
