You'd think that I was smart enough to turn off the TV?
I've had two earthquake nightmares the last two nights.
I apologize if I have sounded dramatic.
I was in the basement of a 10 story building when one earthquake hit.
I knew one of the building engineers and he mentioned that the subfloor was a 6 or eight foot thick slab of concrete.
That day?
I watched that same subfloor ripple like a pond of water that had a stone dropped into it.
In another earthquake I saw a chocolate cake face down on a counter in my mom's kitchen....
I asked my mom and she told me that the freezer opened up, the cake flew about 4 feet, landed upside down on the counter, and the freezer door closed back up afterwards.
Nothing else fell out of the fridge.
Last story?
I heard this a while back.
Someone was checking their house after a quake and came across a bottle filled with change that was sitting outdoors, next to the home.
How it got there?
The quake lifted the house off the foundation, pushed the bottle of change out into the yard, resettled the home back down...Without breaking the bottle.![]()
