What the Folk!

I guess it's kind of an improvement... usually we just get left off the map completely!

Awww. There, there.

"terliddle terlate yabladdy drongos’"

that is too funny!

Wow....it knocked you clear to the other side of Australia, eh? That was some quake!

So we're hearing about a 4.5 aftershock in Christchurch, NZ today. Hoping everyone is well.

They're a tough lot down there. Some minor damage to buildings weakened in the big one last year but otherwise apparently all OK. People are pretty jumpy though, not surprisingly!

I can understand the jumpiness. When my former husband was taping his show in LA, they had a large earthquake, but it was the aftershocks that drove him crazy. We'd be on the phone talking and all of a sudden he'd go, "oh @#$%$#@#, another aftershock!" Then he'd complain because his apartment was above the parking lot, and all the car alarms would go off simultaneously.
