I'm in Carson. Didn't feel a thing because I was driving to lunch.

I'm on the 21st floor of a Century City building. The quake felt like I was on a bizarre wavy escalater or something...

I've had a new ass kicking HDTV for about a month now. It's sitting on a very sturdy stand, but damn it...if I come home and see it crashed to the ground, I'm going to hurt someone. I'm starting to think real hard about a wall mount...
