Ontario Earthquake
So who noticed the earthquake yesterday. I think I was in the shower at the time getting ready for work, so I didn't hear any rumbling or shaking.

Nope. Missed it. Wish I had of been out by the pool. Would have been cool to see tremors manifested on the pool surface.

For these parts, that's a pretty good shake. People in Toronto thought bombs were going off. They're all on edge with this G20 hightened security nonsense going on.

5.0 = fat roommate doing jumping jacks in his room...
But seriously I can understand why people would freak out in your parts. It is a rare occurance from what it seems. Here nobody really cares as long as everyone and everything they cafe about is okay. The news guys, different story. They just can't shut-up about it. That's our nonsense right there.

It can be scary we dont get them regularly but we had one 5. something about 2 months ago I was drunk and asleep at 1AM I felt it and heard it. I live close to the center of the quake. Don't wish the experience to anyone.

We thought it was just construction since our office building was getting a new wing extension.
Everyone ignored the shake until someone decided to google for earthquake -- and it turned out there was one , lol.

It was.
I was back in the Hamilton area at the time. Didn't feel it. Of course they had all these people on the news saying how "scared" they were.
