EARTHQUAKE!!!!!

We just had a 7.0 earthquake hit about 50 miles off the coast. It woke us up about 5:30 this morning (an hour ago). It was about 10-15 seconds long and I honestly was waiting for our house to collapse. I have been in several earthquakes here but this one was huge. We had some stuff fall over in the house but luckily they built everything here to withstand earthquakes and typhoons! I noticed CNN and MSN had a breaking news headline about the quake so I just wanted to let everyone know that everything is fine!
