Post a CommentNot a celeb, but my friend in San Diego said that out of all the disastrous threats and events - this was the only one that really scared him. Glass items fell off of shelves -pipes broke in the plumbing system in his apartment building.
I like the celebrity tweet angle! Nice
I like how you reported it with celebrity tweets. It's a nice, fresh spin.
Interesting approach to an earthquake article. Nice job.
I have an idea if California fell into the Pacific, they'd be tweeting instead of swimming, lol!
What a way to get news! I can't believe that many people were tweeting on Easter!
I hadn't heard about this either, thanks for the information. And that USGS earthquake website looks pretty cool too.
News to me...thank goodness Ashton was on this...I thought he was a photographer or a professional boyfriend or something.
