Okay, none of the newspapers we have mention anything about New Zealand or earthquakes. I've also checked the front of my house to see if there is a bundle of newspaper. No bundle.

Re: Earthquake in Southern New Zealand

Pretty scary.

Then again, we live in Tokyo, well-known for huge earthquakes. I'm not really scared. My house is probably more protected than NORAD headquarters.  lol

Re: Earthquake in Southern New Zealand

In Minnesota, we don't have to worry about Hurricans and Earthquakes and all that junk ^^


But we do have to worry about flooding and lotsa tornadoes, even though MN isn't part of Tornado Alley.

Re: Earthquake in Southern New Zealand

If you can't find it, check CNN or MSNBC or something. They probably have stuff like that.

Nothing? Maybe because many people haven't even heard of New Zealand... xD

So many people think New Zealand is similar and/or a part of Australia.
It drives me INSANE.

Untrue. Around 10% - 15% of cars are pick up trucks.
