So you here about that der earthquake?

Of course you did.

Here in the old armpit, we got a bit of the aftershock. Of course, it lasted for two minutes, nothing fell over, and my sister said she didn't feel anything, so I spent the succeeding half hour googling symptoms of schizophrenia.

My, how the local news was in a tizzy. Have a nice day.

I think us Californias got bad karma. After teasing East Coasters about freaking out about a tiny earthquake (mainly on Twitter), we got our own earthquake around midnight the same day. Tsk tsk.

Franz: It's like how we taunt you for girding your loins at a couple inches of snow. It's all fun and games until a blizzard eats your face? Meanwhile, dear, I've been unable to get to your site for months. It's just a blank screen.

Vance: I'd be worried if it didn't.

What! Outrageous! Does it still show up as a blank screen? I tried it with all the computer in the house and asked around. It seems to work ok for them. :(

Franze: Appears to be fine now. Off I go, then.
