Earthquake Disaster Movies

There was yet another couple minor earthquakes here in Northwest Reno last night that made today being filled with yawns. If they made a natural disaster movie of my experience it would just be called Sleepless in Reno and would not be terribly exciting. Last week it seemed to me that the earthquake swarm was slowing down, but then yesterday that were several shakers strong enough to wake me up. I've been dealing with so many earthquakes the last two and a half months that I've started categorizing them into my own rumblers, shakers, rollers, then glass breakers. I've also got locations down. Being in the midst of the faults I can tell which fault took the hit. What I mean is one of the epicenters was about 150 yards from my house. I could tell which direction the energy came from that popped me up off the couch.

Even though deep inside I absolutely do not believe that Reno will ever in a million years be dealing with 10.5: Apocalypse (television movie starring actors Kim Delaney, Dean Cain, David Cubitt, Frank Langella, and Beau Bridges that follows up mini-series 10.5), I am still sick and tired of lack of sleep. Enough already!

By the way, 10.5 is even cheaper today and does come first. It starts Beau Bridges and Kim Delaney as well. This movie is described as: "Disaster Strikes the United States when an earthquake of epic proportions hits the Pacific Northwest causing the West Coast to separate form the rest of the continent and there is only one man who can save it and 50 Million people for annihilation."

Back to the unfilmed Sleepless in Reno...

I slept so hard when I got home from work today that I missed the Preakness ... which is as it should be as there hasn't been any reform in horse-racing in the last week and I'm still upset another horse died. I saw some horse racing people interviewed on television in a round table discussion with Bob Costas and came to the conclusion that if there is going to be reform it will have to be imposed on those people and not left up to them.

My Favorite Things

Thirteen of My Favorite Things Raindrops on roses, and whiskers on kittens.... I love watching and singing along to a great musical. When I was a kid I used to run about singing like life was a musical. People would ask me what I was singing, but I was just making it up as I went. And I love dancing. I talked my mother into letting me take ballet lessons for a little while. But I wasn’t graceful and my ballet teacher didn’t have very liberal thoughts on teaching children. If you sucked, she let you know. But, she couldn’t ever accuse me of not enjoying dancing. All my favorite songs are either on soundtracks, or are great story like “Desperado” by the Eagles. Listing thirteen favorites might be the subject of another Thursday Thirteen. Some of the movie songs I’ve listened to while typing today: Da Funk by Daft Punk on The Saint soundtrack and #1 Crush by Mundy on the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack. Writing. I can get lost in writing. I love creating stories and characters. Apparently e
