I’ve only felt two earthquakes, both minor. Once in February 2001 (9.5 in Seattle, felt in Portland), and once on the Big Island of Hawaii, in December 2013 (3.2 off the Kona coast). Interesting!

The disability stuff is probably unfair. Unlike SSDI the fact that he can farm oysters doesn’t make him ineligible for VA disability. But the ‘prolier than thou’ stuff was always a ruse. He was an upper middle class kid who went to a very fancy private school until he got kicked out. His father bought his house for him. He told friendly press that he only makes about 5k a year farming oysters and his mom’s restaurant is his only business. He makes almost 5k a month on disability.

Have you got something better than "rigor tortoise"? That is not drawing the adoration I need.

I'd say so. Might try it.

Yes, but they've closed the drapes so you can't see the havoc they wrought while you were out.

I don't subscribe to the newsletter anymore but happened to check their site a few days ago and this was one of the sites they featured on that day. RetroTv is a major rabbit hole....I just showed it to Mr wtg. I think he may surface in a couple of days...

It hit 102 on Saturday and this morning it was 63. Damn.

I haven't quite reached the age when houseproofing and a pretty painted front door is not important. It does happen frequently, from ages around 70 onwards. The attitude being 'it's not that important, the next owner will fix it how they like it'. Love the bread. She must sell all but a couple of loaves.

@RealPlayer I don't think it's unusual. Engineers figure it out. But what I've read is that the developers of this construction have racked up several violations and have deviated from agreed upon plans. Don't take my word for it though.
