Panic 5.3 Earthquake Hits Greece
Posted by Charles Mudede on Mon, Feb 13, 2012 at 6:04 PM
Even God is not liking the austerity deal.
Almost everyone feels movement. Sleeping people are awakened. Doors swing open or close. Dishes are broken. Pictures on the wall move. Small objects move or are turned over. Trees might shake. Liquids might spill out of open containers.

Taken out of context, the description of a magnitude 5 earthquake sounds so poetic. "Trees Might Shake" sounds like the title of an indie folk album.

Actually, I think one could argue that God does like the austerity deal, since his displeasure would be demonstrated in Berlin, not Greece.

Holy crap, this Bible shit is A-mazing! It's like one-size-fits all wisdom for any occasion. You give me a number, the Bible gives me the answers:
Romans 5:3: Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance!
1 Thessalonians 5:3: While people are saying, "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.
Matthew 5:3: Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
James 5:3: Your gold and silver is cankered ; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
That's that. God's 5.3 earthquake was a message.

Why does LeBron only get served boneless buffalo wings? Because he has a tendency to choke.

When I read this on the RSS feed (which doesn't show who wrote it), I thought "what the hell kind of idiot blames an earthquake on human actions?" And then I clicked on it and saw Chuckles' name, and it all made sense.

A 5.6 hit Northern Cali today too, what do you make of that?
