Earthquake!

Reports coming in the the governor slipped and fell in the shower:

• A magnitude 3.8 earthquake was recorded overnight northwest of Springfield, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

  The quake occurred early Tuesday morning about 2.5 miles northwest of the village of Ohlman, roughly 36 miles northwest of Springfield, USGS geophysicist Rafael Abreu Paris said.

  “A magnitude 3.8 is a small earthquake. This is a quake that is typical for the central U.S.,” Abreu Paris told the Sun-Times. “Anything above a 4.5 is a little high for the region, so a magnitude 3.8 is something that you could expect anywhere in the world.”

Luckily, it was during shift change, so there were twice the usual number of State Troopers on duty available with moving straps to rescue Porkulous.
