There's a picture at [link] but you can't really tell that well. Supposedly all the other houses are fine.
eta: based on the time, I guess I didn't hear it. It was some other random weird boom noise!

Yikes, indeed! I hope everyone's all right.
I remember when a refinery holding tank exploded back when I was in high school. It was about 15 miles away, yet the house still shook a bit, and everyone was outside looking towards the northeast. The workers cleaning the outside of the tank (and causing the explosion when they used blowtorches to do some improvised sandblasting) were vaporized. I lost a second cousin when the grain elevator he was working at spontaneously combusted--that one cracked windows for miles around.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
If I feel really crappy and low...I can eat half of this cadbury caramello bar and it's TOTALLY FINE, right?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I don't know. Half doesn't exactly show a lot of follow-though, does it? Better go for the whole thing, just to be sure.

I'll bet!
I've been hearing thumps and booms all day- I think it is trees and branches going down in the ravine. I was in an interior office in a meeting around the time that boom happened.
