YES. If you live in WA, please set aside 15 minutes to read this minute-by-minute fictionalized (but well-researched, and popcorn-worthy) account of a hypothetical Cascadia Subduction Zone mega earthquake and tsunami.

Recent Arrivals at my house
The dark but hilariously, DeLillo-ously dense The Ask. I saw Sam Lipsyte at Hugo House, and that (gladly) inspired me to go read some of his stuff.
The Ladies of Grace Adieu and Other Stories, for $1 at a library book sale in Echo Park. I had no idea I could spend some more time in the Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell world!
Much Olson Farms pork
A dozen yummy eggs from Amy and Shanti's Vashon chooks
Whoa... Funyuns! This was one of my go-to chip choices as a kid.

I really love this part:
“The new evidence meant that the Juan de Fuca plate wasn’t sliding easily under the North American plate,” says Yeats. “It meant that the two plates were completely locked.” Pressure has been building and building, for 311 years. If you are a geologist, at this point what runs through your mind is, Holy shit.
I just want you to know in advance that, when it finally happens, you guys are welcome to come and camp in our backyard. Who knows, by then we might just have a great ocean view. YOu could just think of it as an extended vacation - be sure to bring your skis.

Then Bend could have another real estate boom, with new beachfront property! Just like in the original Superman movie.
We're totally there, count us in.

That's hilarious! I was thinking the exact same thing - Gene Hackman as Lex Luthor, and two wayward nukes.
Oh! And, of course, Marlon Brando: "IT IS FORBIDDEN TO ALTER THE COURSE OF TIME!!!"
