Just had a nice little jolt of an earthquake here in Anchor-town.  I'd say at least a 3.5 to a 4

QuoteA regional tectonic earthquake occurred at 11:28 AKDT and was felt throughout South Central Alaska. This event is not related to Redoubt. The West Coast and Alaska Tsunami Warning Center has a preliminary magnitude of 5.3 and a location 30 miles southwest of Talkeetna.

I thought I might have low-balled it.

That was from the monitoring site for the Redoubt volcano, USGS so far has it a 5.7

I learned recently that the GDP of Earth was 62 trillion in 08.  Really puts the size of the stimulus bill in perspective.

Compare that with the status of London in 1813.
I'm sure Tim has a map of 100 years after something awful happened to London during the War of 1812 or some such.  I'll have to use that for a picture. :lol:

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Why not!?
It doesn't seem to be doing anything.  It's just an ogre on a dragon.

I think the Dragon looks like it's about to attack something.

Maybe.  Still, it seems incomplete, like it's a smaller part of a bigger picture.

The battleship is imaginary.  It doesn't correspond to any class of battleship.  Still, it could easily defeat the crappy walker.
