   Speaking of Snooki, the real Snooky makes some of the best pizza around at Nunzio’s on Westwood Ave. in Long Branch. Old school pie if she feels like opening.

   I was thinking more along the lines of “Bingley in the black bean salad again?!?!”

   Heh! New Jersey doesn’t get many quakes. Did you feel this one?

   3.9?

   I’m amazed somebody felt it.

   Plate tectonics are different on the east coast, mojo. The east coast is far less fractured, meaning fewer fault lines, so that the shock wave from a quake event is transmitted more cleanly. So a smaller event travels further. Hence, a smaller shake can be felt further away.

   Still, I imagine that a 3.9 event isn’t all that, ummmmm, earth shattering, even for the east coast, and especially that far out to sea. Judging from the time (1045 EST), most folks probably thought it was a truck rolling by.

   Heck, that could just be someone paying the price for hitting Taco Bell that early in the morning.
