Heard on the radio that by Sunday afternoon, the Minnesota/ Airport ramp as at grade and paved.
Heard someone say Alaskans are showing the world that we’re the ‘get it done’ crew.

And everyone in Alaska has gun.. well that's what people on fb are saying 😁
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

I've got a quesiton, how many of you have earthquake insurance? I did not, but I have learned a couple things since this quake. All damage is tax deductible, right down to a broken plate. And, FEMA is taking claims for those with substantial damage. I went to look at a fireplace yesterday in eagle river. It had snapped in half, half way up, and had spun about 15 degrees, and was teetering, ready to fall through the roof and into the house. There is major damage out there. I suspect by the end of the week, we'll have a better idea how much. Virtually no one has earthquake insurance. The premiums are high and the deductibles are higher. I guess the wife and I must be about some of the only people in our neighborhood that don't have earthquake insurance. According to the neighborhood Facebook page, the people that made claims were all happy until they were told, oh you didn't meet your 10% deductible, we aren't paying you squat. I guess I'll keep on going without it. We had it in Arkansas, and an earthquake occurred and the insurance dropped it all together for everyone in the state. The wife did find some more damage, our heater in the garage bit the dust. I guess it shook a little too much.

Indeed.

Indeed. And they expected something else?

I'm still amazed at the differences in damage levels, and how 99% of the area is just fine while certain areas are destroyed.
After this 7.0, I'm 100% sure that I don't want to go through a 9.2.

Riley had two photos fall off the wall... into the baby's cradle... he was not in it (neither Riley nor the baby)... huge skull collection stayed on open shelves, virtually nothing broke. He lives closer to you than me... you are both in good locations for quakes I would guess.

Indeed. That’s never been in doubt. I’ve always said grab a handful of Alaskans and you could build or do just about anything imaginable.....assuming there’s no alcohol present. 😁

Friends of our in Big Lake were not so lucky.

Friends of our in Big Lake were not so lucky. My friend in Palmer had damage to his house and shop. The pics are surprising. As he said, nothing time and money can't fix.
