I felt it here in Lakeland.

Thank God, I'm not crazy. I thought someone crashed a car into my building.

I live on the 2nd story.


Did you guys hear voices too? (Maybe that's just me, though)

Tsunami?


Nope...I'm drinking Mai Tai's but thanks for asking!

(I think they only issue Tsunami warnings for 7.0 or larger...this was only a 6. Which doesn't seem like much of a big difference, but it must be)

Well, today i went to Keaton Beach
today this afternoon and talk to old skipper
that use to live in key west long time ago,
and that lives in keaton beach area my mom talk to guy about our boat storyies on gulf and untill he told us they had earthquake this morning and local lady at shop had close down her beach store becuase it was knocking down  her Pictures frames  down and even old skipper told 'me' he thought his dogs screw up his living room it was earthquake cuase knock overs.

But i went got out of house today to travel 60miles to beach today
to have some salt freash air down there and water was claim as glass and very quitit and not alot people at beach today.

I even told lady a cashier at doller store today in perry about earthquake hitting  gulf of mexcio and they were freaking out they didn't warned them about earthquake hit gulf of mexcio.My dad told me this morning he felt it here at house at 4.0 shaking house little bit here mcalpin i was sleep this morning.. What does means ? it could be ocean telling us or it could be another quake hitting same spot again
second time and they can always do that,but i'll keep watching news in next few days if another quake happens. But florida hadsn't had a earthquake hit florida since 1808 that knock down St. Augustine  lighthouse.

I guess florida will be sliding off face of earth into landslide.

"Whats next" hurricanes, FL earthquakes,Floods,forest fires,tornados,Then meter riot will hit gulf.
 Well we  might need get rafts soon if next big quake hits" it might be 10times worst, you should saw news last night on Channel 6 in tally the guy that runs weather system around whole enitre state of florida and if was 6.4 quake then it would made a sunami.

I talk to some people today, about it and people in obrain felt it pretty bad and even there freind down in vencie florida felt it shooking worst down there and my mom's friend from school out by I10 over nnw live oak flet it shooking worst over there and i was reading newpaper today it was all NC and in Jax flet quake and made a building fell into ground i don't how true that is.

So whats next florida will be earthquake state same as CA.LOL

I just thought it was the dog farting.  Then as I breathed more I realized I must have farted.  Think it was simulaneous timing w/ the earth quake.  All I know is when it was done the dog gave me a high 5 for rattling the walls. :o
