Daughter: "Was that an earthquake?" Me: "Yep." Daughter: "Huh." (We resume examining the rotunda.)

You just don't know my daughter.

Daughter: "Was that an earthquake?" Me: "Yep." Daughter: "Huh." (We go back to our books.)

Am I to understand that some people got excited?

I had to get rid of my cable teevee in the economic downturn but I'm guessing CNN, MSNBC and FOX are going to milk this until tomorrow morning. Can anyone confirm? Damn. Times like these I miss shelling out the bucks for Wolf Blitzer telling me over and over just how terrified I ought to be.

Rick Perry says that plate tectonics are just a theory, one of many. Let's call this quake what it actually is, a sign from Gawd that millions of teabaggers are about to be swooped up off their scooters, to be raptured away to that great McDonalds in the sky, where Jesus himself brings them their deep fried apple pies. Hallelujah Jesus!

Yes, sometimes they present as sways; sometimes as jolts. The symptoms of earthquake are often confused for other, more common things such as morbidly obese governors moving about in the vicinity. They can therefore be tricky to diagnose.

Fox News will run a photo of Obama cycling in Martha's Vineyard as the beltway reels: 'DOESN'T HE EVEN CARE?'

The name "Lord & Taylor" seems a bit off-putting to me.
