What's shakin'?!?

Surprised to hear there was an earthquake today out in the Gulf of Mexico.

Supposedly, tremors were felt as far inland as downtown Orlando.

The local news station was running around shoving microphones in peoples' faces trying to get first-hand accounts.

But, it seemed to me, most of the people they cornered were just telling them what they wanted to hear so they'd quit interrupting their lunches.

All this because some pipes burst in one of the fancy new high-rise condos.

Yeah, let's blame that offshore quake.

Oh, and maybe we could gin-up some hurricane-like hysteria if we run a story on the possibility of tsunamis.

Must be a slow news day.

And, by the way, nothing's shaking in Apopka.

But, that's typical, isn't it?!
