ANNAPOLIS, MD (August 23, 2011) – Governor Martin O’Malley today released this statement following the reported 5.9 magnitude earthquake this afternoon:
“The earthquake this afternoon was an extremely unusual occurrence for us here on the East Coast. I have been briefed by members of my cabinet and public safety officials on the status of state facilities and operations. Presently, there are no reports of significant damage or incidents and we will continue to monitor the situation closely, particularly over the next 24 to 48 hours. We will be paying close attention to our utilities for problems with water mains or gas lines that may not be present immediately following an earthquake.
“Of course, when the earthquake first hit, our thoughts immediately turned to the safety of our loved ones. I encourage everyone to check on their family members, friends and neighbors; particularly the elderly to make sure everyone is safe.”

I sure our governor has created a task force to determine how to implement an earthquake tax.
Obama said it was George Bushes' fault
And the fish jumped cleeeene over the boat. 6:47 is right, an earthquake tax is next.
I'm surprized he didn't recommend that every county create a set of Mississippi wind chimes as an early warning system.
I heard the origin of the quake was a cemetary just outside of Washington D.C. Many of the Nation's Founding Fathers are buried there.
Rumor has it that almost all of them turned over in their graves simultaneously this morning.
8:27 PM
lol
duh 30 seconds of shaking and it was over. Get over it and move on.
I thought it was the bed springs of Congressman BArnie FRanks in bed with Obama!
O'Malley didn't feel the earthquake because his head was stuck up Obamas ass.
