I thought it was the McChrystal Announcement

Needless to say, we are particularly interested in your thoughts on the matter.

Something earth-shaking happened in Canada? You mean since the retreat of the glaciers? Now, that’s news!

Yes, I for one am eagerly awaiting the Klein-verdict. With past titles like “Why People Love Petraeus,” I’m sure his general’s massage parlor will prove enlightening.

Per the show in DC today, more palliative care for the disease of permanent war.

Sure, apparently we’re spending $2 billion to host both the G8 and G20 summits. How you get to $2 billion is beyond me. I can’t imagine that the annual UN General Assembly meeting with up to 200 world leaders showing up in New York City cost them $2 billion dollars.

Maybe Harper’s fake lake got damaged in the shaking. *mutters*

Maybe it was the journalist gods telling you your trade needs to start doing the job of doing real reporting. I find it amusing that so many of the traditional media are tittering that McChrystal let that “hippie” magazine’s reporter interview him and his staff. As stated in Politico they should know that a “real” reporter would never chance losing them as sources by reporting all those derogatory remarks.
.
Besides the stupidity of admitting how sources are protected, the utter arrogance is no surprise. It is sort of like “real Americans” and those “other” people. There is the usual disdain for any reporting done outside of the villager’s world.

Obama is deploying earth quakes against real America? Damn that Kenyan.

So that’s what I felt here in Massachusetts (and I really did). I thought it was the final thrust of the tectonic shift of Massachusetts from blue state to red.

Of course all my white, middle-class, middle-aged co-workers thought it was a dumb move by Obama and he is now, officially, a one-term President. Naturally if you’d rather vote for a lobotomized sea monkey… or Sarah Palin… than any Democrat in the history of everything, you might think that way.

He’s using a super-secret map of fault zones presented to him at midnight in a graveyard by emissaries of the Trilateral Commission.

The quake was probably located at a Canadian port and caused by a defective Chinese shipment of Acme earthquake pills.

Gotta get those manufacturing jobs back over here. Maybe lovely Kate will tell us if earthquake pills would be covered under Socialized ObamaCare™.

Where the pills on the recall list? Because this is the first time I’m hearing of it and I picked up a dozen.

Well, that explains it. Whew.

I think Wile E. is scheduled for a grilling on Capitol Hill. If not, he should be. What am I paying those stiffs for?

I went to FDA’s recall site and entered “earthquake pills”. Amazingly, seven results came up, all quite tangential of course, but expected no results at all.
.
Of course, in the name of false balance / equivalency we have to report on the Coyote finally catching the Road Runner. Per canon, it only happened in the final episode and he couldn’t do anything (after chasing thru pipes he was shrunken down but RR was not). However, many youtube fans created their own solutions….

(this is my favorite one, the background music is brilliant)

Here’s the real FDA recall site –

“lobotomized sea monkey”

im going to be borrowing that. then again, i love all references to sea monkeys

I felt the earthquake in Northern Vermont, my fourth or fifth. I was on the couch watching the President’s announcement when the couch started moving back and forth. I love our relatively small earthquakes.

But there’s another potential earthquake coming, and that’s the possibility that the column supporting the well casing of the Gulf oil gusher is eroding so much that the wells being dug to intercept will not be able to supply cement with enough pressure to close it off, and/or that the column will have deteriorated enough to actually collapse. Not clear how much of that 13,000 feet is rock, and how much is salt dome, which would be usual, and is, of course, structurally less stable than rock. I wake up with nightmares of the reservoir opening up, the oceans being degrade, life on earth changing….

Hope your Science reporter is working on this.

“Wolfowitz: We were having a meeting in my office. Someone said a plane had hit the World Trade Center. Then we turned on the television and we started seeing the shots of the second plane hitting, and this is the way I remember it. It’s a little fuzzy.

Q: Right.

Wolfowitz: There didn’t seem to be much to do about it immediately and we went on with whatever the meeting was. Then the whole building shook. I have to confess my first reaction was an earthquake. I didn’t put the two things together in my mind. Rumsfeld did instantly.”
