Earthquakes 2020

Were you all too drunk and didn’t realize the shaking? Or am I still too drunk and didn’t see the post?

Either way: This year we didn’t have to wait long for the first one!

Something wrong with your frontal lobe, no feelings?

These are two different scales. Magnitude is scored on the Richter scale and measures energy released, while intensity measures the actual surface effects.

Swear I’ve felt three tremors in the past 45 min. . That or my blood sugar is wonky

Probably your blood sugar.
Although, I also felt my world world shaking about the same time. But in my case it was the penny dropping while my third child was being born. :grin:
