A shallow 3.5 magnitude earthquake in Templeton rattled northern San Luis Obispo County on Friday afternoon, according to the United States Geological Survey.

Shortly after 3:30 p.m., the quake struck in rural Templeton near Jack Creek Cellars. The 3.2 miles deep earthquake was located off Highway 46 West near Vineyard Drive.

Several residents in Templeton said the shaking was strong enough to knock items from shelves.

You rocked my world, baby! (kiss)

It’s Climate Change………SMO!


Must be “god” then right? You’d rather believe in fairy tales than science :/ What exactly do you know about water loads and underground pressure changes? Jack(!), Im sure.


That’s “God” with a capital “G.” Get it right! Good grief. I understand more now why they say “The Left Ain’t Right.” I suppose it’s depends on one’s own “perspective,” as misconstrued as it often tends to be.


While I do believe in the possibility of a higher power; I wouldn’t be caught dead worshipping one even if proven real. So I’m certainly not inclined, or required, to appease your choices in the matter.

The “left” doesnt need the threat of eternal punsihment in order to not mistreat people. Many of us simply believe it’s the correct thing to do. Personally I think we’re just here to take care of the planet and its occupants. If you’re looking for purpose in life, there it is. And currently mind you, we are blowing it!
