CHOCTAW — The way the bed shook, a Southern California native now living in eastern Oklahoma County had a bit of a flashback early Thursday.

If it gets worse they’re on their own, Obama is busy.
I felt the bed move. Was it good for you too?

That was funny
We had two more this morning at 9:18 and 9:25. Somewhere around 4.0, and centered just south of Jones. They could be plainly felt in Midwest City.
Danny Glover blamed it on global warming. Oh yeah, we’ve had the coldest winter on record for the last 116 years here in Oklahoma! Maybe Danny can blame the earthquake on our intense red-state status.
Oh, I don't know about that.
If we view the planet as a steadily growing one, then we may understand the mechanics of it a bit more.
And there is no doubt it is growing.
They are going to tax the Earth next for growing. ;)
I felt the 9:18 one...well, not really felt but was just aware of it...here just South of Tulsa! I’ve never experienced anything like it but I knew what it was. I was sitting at my kitchen table drinking coffee and looking at the computer when all of a sudden my flower pots on top of my fridge clanked together hard and the dropped ceiling in my kitchen shook!
BUMP that.
