Random As Rhyme

As I am sure most of you are aware right now a 5.7ish Earthquake was felt from Ottawa all the way to Toronto. I have never experienced an earthquake before so it was pretty wild. The earth didn’t open up or anything crazy but the twitter/msn chatter was pretty amusing.

Here are some conversations I had with my friends right after it happened, reading them back later they amused me.
