Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Monday, May 18, 2009

It was a quiet poker filled sunday night when the Convent seemed ready to fall down. There was a good reason for this as the construction is very poor and rickety. After 3 to 5 seconds of noisy vibration things began to bounce fairly well. The window near me and my outside door were bouncing in their mountings and soon the real sounds of oops. 5 frightened Nuns were each deciding whether to scream or faint. Lots of screaming no fainting. All calm now-good night.

5.0?

Does that even bother a californian?

4.7 earthquake in El Segundo, Ca at roughly 8;26pm. Loud and noisy with really good bumps and bounces but no real damage reported as yet.

I did not feel it. Pasadena area. Too busy laughing at Celtics getting their ass kicked, I guess.(TIVO)

I guess this is gonna sound kinda mean but if it's a prelude to the "Big One" at least I'll have less of a trip to get to the beach (I live in NW Nevada).

Why do they say an earthquake hits an area?? I mean the shit happens beneith a person/Community/State?? I mean a hurricane hits the beach then New Orleans. A tornado hits a region of Kansas. A lightning strikes/Hits a particular area. Hail stones hit a windshield. But an earthquake can't hit/strike You when it's in the earth. AN EARTHQUAKE SHAKES YOU IT DOES NOT HIT YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It makes no sense whatsoever.

Go to bed Larry you need to rest up for tomorrow's blogging for/against whatever it is you blog for/against


Actually Larry I kinda like you although I'm not quite sure why...oh wait you remind me of my Uncle Thaddeus who rambled on a lot too. He used to give me a buck to go buy some candy and stop challenging him how about you Larry?

Nahhhhhh My Dad however says I bitch too much. I don't know maybe I do and I don't notice it. Who knows Ya know??

Poker night at the Convent? Earthquake?

Doncha jus' hate it when that happens?

Seriously, Keith, I'm glad to hear everybody is OK.

LARRY

You do have a tendency to nuance things to death.

Nahhhhhh My Dad however says I bitch too much. I don't know maybe I do and I don't notice it. Who knows Ya know??

He's right. You do.

Poker night at the Convent?

There's a joke in there but Spud doesn't wanna go to hell fer telling it.

/And yes it did involve nuns in altar boy uniforms.

Be Well.

we have replaced cali earthquakes with tornadoes - seemed like a fair trade. still does.

Earthquake?
You sure it just wasn't you getting the shakes from withdrawal?
You know-from fnord?

First announcement-I am going to have some serious surgery that may (odds on favorite) walk again and fish and make some kind of living. Poker still a good alternative. Going now to the nooner to say it again!!! Walking-HOLY SHIT!!!

That's wonderful news, Keith!

I will definitely be sending many prayers your way. Let us know when you're scheduled for surgery.

Thanks CHRIS-I will want and need all of the help I can get. When working within millimeters of the spinal cord one asks for prayers for the stability of the surgeons hand and knife. If ever large sums of money come my way, there shall be time to visit some of you. It will be a surprise to have a 6'7" white and long haired man walk repeat, walk in and say Hi! Lets hope so anyway. Detail as I have them.

Print out this prayer to St. Jude (the prayer is in the gray portion) which I've linked for you below, and then cut it out and carry it in your wallet. Say it often up until the time of your surgery. St. Jude is the Patron Saint of difficult or hard cases, although you can pray to him for anything.

St. Jude (and St. Anthony) are my two favorite Saints. St. Jude came through for me in a big way a long time ago. And whether you're a believer in the Saints or not, it won't hurt to say this prayer.

Prayer to St. Jude

We'll all be rooting for you, Keith. Keep us up on what's happening.
