Rarely do I blog twice in the same day, but I have deadlines, and must distract myself…
Anyway, the earthquake shook us all awake on a hazy Easter afternoon. I wrote about it on my Silver Lake blog, (which got linked by the LA Times):
My friend Geri Mars, in Redondo Beach (45 min south of LA) tweeted:
No wonder such great rolling motion. My large aquarium was sloshing. That woke up the turtles!
There was an interesting link to a science site, USGS, called Did you feel it?
I actually did this cartoon in January, right after the Haiti earthquake, for CalWatchdog. Didn’t seem right to list it on Slate then – not PC and more importantly, not funny.
I think it fits today’s news, though.
There may be more comments at CalWatchdog.
Cartoon caption: Q. Why are so many people leaving California? A. Earthquakes, drought, and pestilence.
Kind of a biblical answer to the question. The population really is leaving, and they are the worker bees, which makes our economy poorer. :( Plus, they’re probably smart, interesting, maybe even wise people that I would like to get to know. :*
