My Happenings

This week I experienced an Earthquake, 5.4 in the richter scale. I was in Japan on business when I was awoke in my bed as it shook back and forth. It lasted only about 20 seconds, and wasn't that bad. It was the kind of earthquake that shakes back and forth and not up and down. Apparently the up and down type are much worse. No one was seriously hurt, as Tokyo is well prepared for this sort of thing. As a matter of fact life went on as if nothing had happened.

I read this again the other day for the millionth time but it always gets me.
