I don't know if it's the half a meter that was talked about, but there has been a hell of a lot fo snow in the last few days. I can't recall when there last where a winter with uninterrupted snow for two months like this.

There was an earthquake here last night. Pretty freaky...4,7 on the Richter Scale. Not too bad though but still, not too shabby either.
Oh, and it keeps on snowing.

Well I go back to work after two weeks off because of Snowmaggedon, one week because of the snow and one week because my school's flat roof had so much snow it was declared unsafe until scaffolding was brought in to reinforce what appears to be buckled supports.

Oh shut up, "mr. nothing in the world makes an impression on me"!
Consider that Denmark is situated in an eathquake dead zone, and that therefore 4.7 is quite a bit.

So the water did shake inside a glass....

Seriously, 4.7 is like what happens to buildings that are too near a high speed train track...

Freaky it's not!


And i'm just not impressed with the rather mundane things you people seem to be...

It's all relative to what you're used to. A 6.0 in San Francisco makes the news but hardly anybody gets hurt. A 6.0 hits Haiti and it levels the place.

So, why do you even bother coming here, if we're too mundane for you? It's not like you're the world's most interesting person either.

I think it was more closer to a 7.0 in Haiti... plus structural integrity wasn't something they believed in...
