5.8 Earthquake hits Virgina and is felt up the coast

Well that was fun. Not. We were just evacuated and stood staring at our building in fright for about an hour. It was the 5.8 earthquake in Virgina. [I'm in Jamaica, Queens New York (on Long Island)]. The LIRR evacuated its office buildings.

Our whole building shook, it felt very weird. Like being on one of those shaky rides.

We're shaken but okay. And now back to work.

Cool! We just had the blinds rattle up here.

You felt it all the way up in Canada? Whoa.
