Anyone else surf a bit on those shocks?

I thought our HVAC unit was shuddering and about to crash through the ceiling...  Was standing over my desk hitting "print" when the LCD started wobbling and the desk started vibrating.  Every prairie dog in the cube farm was up and looking around like WTF was that?

Hell, I crap bigger'n 'at.  So no worries.

Still, interesting we could feel it all the way up here.

weirdest thing I've experienced, I thought my equilibrium was going! I did head for the door, that was really unsettling. OK, now bring on the Cat 4 hurricane!

Was he dropped from a 'copter?  I can see how that could have caused it.

Bryant McKinnie gets some assistance getting off the plane.

Ravens OL Coach Andy Moeller hopes McKinnie can anchor the LT spot.
