Earthquake!!

  Yes, an earthquake shaking the ground in South Jersey.  I  have lived 64 years and never experienced anything close to this tremor.  I was sitting at a poker machine at the Taj Mahal.  When it first started I thought the mechansism on the seat was going fluky.  Then I thought it could be a terrorist attack.  I thought maybe it was just a horrible accident like a plane hitting the building.  After it was over I got a little more reasonable and realized I had just experienced one of nature's rare events for this area:  an earthquake!  I certainly had a lot of thoughts for all of about four seconds.
