Rolled for 30-45 seconds here in central South Carolina. Nothing came off the walls or anything like that, just a definite rolling movement.

Gosh, I leave to run errands and things start shaking! I just happened to see this on the twitter feed, didn’t even have Foxnews on. I hope everything is ok.

Felt it here a little north of Raleigh. Talked to son in The Valley, he was rattled. This was his first earthquake. Can’t get daughter in DC, her husband works at the Pentagon.

Very strong in Newport News. My neck actually still hurts. Guess I can knock that off my bucket list.

The shaking got so bad in Massachusetts that Obama lost his grip on his putter and gerbils fell out of Barney Frank.

Yeah, it didn’t last long. Maybe 15 seconds at most.

This is strange. I thought Palin wasn’t going to announce for a few more weeks!!

Or, is this an Obama bump in the polls for his recent pretend war announcement?
