"I have ATM!!!"

Food comes first, then morals.

I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?

the key is this:
anything less than a 4, you're not going to feel unless you are standing pretty much on top of the epicenter and there is nothing going on around you.
4's - sometimes, but you need to be fairly close, and you can easily mistake them for something else - train going by, big trucks, etc;
5's - you can definitely feel, but they don't cause much damage;
6's - you really feel, and they cause some property damage, but not enough to have a lot of people getting hurt;
7's - you're ducking for cover, strong enough that roads and bridges start falling apart, houses come off their foundations, and lots of people end up hurt.

It's the baubles of the rich and powerful, baubles which they play with.

Is this your first?

Every increased possession loads us with new weariness.

Big problems are like cold baths: you have to get out as fast as you got in.
