Earthquake Cherry

Scratch earthquake off the list. 4.7 at the epicenter, hundred km's away. Biggest one in Denmark since 1985. Woke me up. Lasted longer than I thought it would - maybe a minute. You can really feel the earth dance. It's got a weird sense of rhythm, I will tell you that. Boogies like Elaine in Seinfeld.

That thing about animals going crazy in advance is horseshit. The loudmouth mutt upstairs that yaps at every little thing didn't say fuck all.

The morning news featured people mistaking the earth-shake for a terrorist attack. Some said it felt like a plane hitting the ground. Not me though. I woke up, declared that an earthquake was happening, then went back to sawing logs. I'm like an earthquake identification system. Just call me Richter.
