hahaha... I love that pic, Mark!

I felt the earthquake too, here in Central PA!  It was absolutely crazy.  I'd say it lasted about 15 seconds, maybe a little longer, like it kind of came in "waves."  But I was at work and my office is on the 3rd floor of a really old building, and it was shaking and swaying pretty good!!  My secretary and I ran out into the parking lot screaming.  LOL.  I completely expected to see a wrecking ball out in the parking lot!  They keep threatening to tear the building down and I was afraid they started to do it with us in it!  LOL.  When we saw nothing that would indicate what had happened, I called campus law enforcement and they said there had been an earthquake near DC (that's all we knew at the time... this was just minutes after it happened). 

So yeah!  Definitely nothing I ever thought I'd experience in my life!  It was really strange feeling.  And now we're waiting to see what kind of impacts we'll get from this damned Mean Irene!  Poor Joeyson will probably get it a lot worse than I will.
RIP Kyle, we love and miss you man.  :smooch:
thanks for the smooch I miss you too !  :yesnod:
