6.9 on the Richter scale
I survived my first earth quake here in Los Angeles, and the photo above is what it felt like… No just jokes, it really wasn’t too bad. Strange feeling though. I was sitting in bed on my lap top working on some website changes, and all the sudden my door started shaking… Then my rack [...]
