  1. We got a pretty good shaking here in San Diego.

    I was kicking back in the papasan chair in the sun

    room watching the cats play, Boats was reading the Sunday paper at the family dining table when it hit.

    I just looked around rather amused at everything hanging and swaying. The wrought iron chandlier over the dining table was really moving!

    We both agreed if it had been any closer we might have actually had a few things fall down, but it didn't happen and we could tell it was a bit further away.

    Now mind you through the whole quake, the cats continued to play, the parakeets were happily chirping away, Gilligan was going through his pirate talk and Corky as usual was just occasionally squawking.

    It felt like we were on jello the way the place was shaking, and on a news cast later, a reporter said the same thing.

    No water even sloshed out of the aquarium or the cat's water dish. Just a weird jiggling kind of shake a bit hard.

    I had some friends from Orange County call and they said by the time it got to them in Stanton it was just a good roll.

    I've felt a few aftershocks, but so far no problems.

  2. The drive from Pasadena to Ojai is about an hour, maybe.

    Just take the 210 north to the 123 exit, just past Magic Mountian in Valencia. Wonderful drive, you avoid all the heavy traffic on the 101 through the San Fernando Valley.

    The 123 meets up with the 101 in Oxnard, go north on the 101 to the 133 exit for Ojai.

    Turn left on Santa Ana (there's a Shell gas station there)then right when it dead ends and follow it around the lake, you'll see the place on your left.

    BTW-Anyone else needing directions give me a holler!

  3. Saw some people I know, others I know by sight/here at the Pub.

    Loved the show! Loved the comebacks from all the people playing pirates. And Scarlet and the rest wouldn't have minded a little blood in the food. But Dogge getting his hands wrapped in plastic was hilarious as was going into Albertson's and grabbing huge trays of veggies and such and then trying to pay with those 'funny' coins. Total hoot!

    And the best was when Dogge was going to kill the chef and every time he got a gun, it was quickly taken away...great comedy timing!

    Well done! ;)

  4. Hey my partner in crime Boats, was a submariner when he was in the Navy and called himself a pirate even then.

    So the Navy can be proud that it's former and current personnel just love to go out and find their way to pirate groups. :lol:

  5. Somehow I doubt that many would be willing to fly to the Hawaiian Islands for a casting call.

    Not that Eye could, but I'm guessing his real job wouldn't allow for the time off he would need, but again I don't know his thoughts.
