That's right an earthquake. A real natural earthquake hit Ill this morning and could be felt at least as far away as Franklin KY. (that's where I live). Others here at work that actually live a little farther to the south in Tenn said they had felt it as well. Hopefully no one was hurt in this 5.4 quake. I know it gaves us a lot to talk about today. You know; stuff like "are these the end of days" etc.
Pretty cool stuff. I thought I was dreaming, but I was already out of bed had my shower and was getting ready to leave for work. I'll post more as links are available on the news services.

It woke me up. We live about 2 - 2.5 hours south of the epicenter and it didn't feel like much at all (my wife freaked out and I couldn't fall back to sleep)....I've felt a lot worse. I wasn't impressed until I heard that it was felt in Louisville and Milwaukee and it was the lead story on Good Morning America.

Yeah, my wife said they had reported the aftershock being something 4.2 or something like that. Hope people have their earthquake insurance up to date.
I'll bet by tomorrow you'll start seeing the adds on all of the networks to get your earthquake insurance if you don't already have it.
