There was a 7.0 earthquake out in the desert earlier. Blah blah blah, noone died or anything. But the damn news shows are cutting into my Saturday morning tv shows. Damn you, news people!
I work nights and had been home for just a bit. Listening to the old radio program "The Shadow" and then the ground started to roll. Not the worst one I've ever been in...and yes, the media did make a fuss over the quake.

I've heard of that radio show, in fact.

We have a local news radio station that plays old radio classics. "Gunsmoke" and "The Shadow" are on Friday nights and it's rather cool to listen too after I get home from work. However, after the quake hit, they broke into the show and the Shadow's case was not resolved yet!! I don't know how it turned out!!

Deadkujo: I know what you mean. I waited all morning for the stupid news reports to end, but it didn't and I had to miss Beast Machines and new Pokemon episodes.
Did anyone hear that they found a giant split in the ground in the middle of the desert? The guys at Caltech said it'll advance earthquake research a lot. At least something good came out of this.

Oh, you guys are talking about the quake here in So Cal...I remember that night. That quake came at an interesting time acutally. But let's not go to that.
