The Hollywood sign lost the H in the quake. So it turns out I’m lame and can’t post pictures to make my jokes funny. The Hollywood sign lost the H in the quake.

Those of us who had experienced one before didn't think much of it. One girl even kept working through it!

Northridge that was a pretty good whopper. Anyway here in the SGV we had 2 hard jolts. The first hit, shaking dropped off and at about 20 seconds the next jolt hit and the ground rocked hard. Total time was maybe 45 seconds to a minute. I was walking into the Fresh and Easy when it hit. We stepped back into the parking lot. We could see the big lights for the parking lot sway with a good 2-3 foot sway. No damage in the store. I had one light outside fall over and break. My wife works in Pomona at the HSBC service center. She called me right after the quake. Their building shook hard, files fell off desks and some ceiling tiles fell. Her building was evacuated a few minutes ago as a second floor ceiling besides losing a lot of tiles also has a sag so all are out as a precaution. That is NOT a big one.
