Thought my neighbors house, to the east of me, had exploded. I ran out. He ran out. I hugged him, cause I really thought he was no longer.

I blame Rudy Warnock for disturbing the Earth Mother with his no-bid airport surveying.

False alarm...it was just Will Longwitz crying because he won't be re-elected this year. Time for a change! Will. Has. Got. To. Go. No more posturing from an out-of-touch Senator.

This is an attack from the North!! They are taking away the flag, giving us Oxford House, and now earthquakes! Senator Longwitz only you can save us now. Please run to the nearest television station and give us your thoughts on the matter.

Not to worry. If anything spilled out of the cabinet, John Bell will get a mop and clean it up. Experience counts.

Thanks Obama

3.2 magnitude... epicenter is same area of previous... Nissan Plant

Also felt in Rankin County, reservoir area.

Well, Nissan is in their 2-week summer shutdown, so we can't blame them!

Time to get right with God.

I blame Godzilla. Maybe Mothra, too.

Thanks a lot, oxford house

Epicenter is actually closer to Billingsley's mansion. Bill probably has gas.

I love the humor - SWD well in G-stadt.

Its not the Wrath of God, the awakening of the New Madrid Fault, but rather, the effects of an SWD injection well. Blame the EPA.

The reason the facebook poster felt the earth move south of county line was because an oxford house meth lab blew up

I'm not defending Warnock, but I am defending the Engineering Practice. Engineers are like Doctors. Doctors don't bid to provide medical treatment nor do you ask them to. Engineers don't bid either. Look it up on the Mississippi Board of Engineers and Surveyors web site. For the last time "ENGINEERS DO NOT BID ON WORK". We are professionals and we are hired as such. Just like the DR that treats your kids.....

HERE IS THE LAW; If you don't like it take it up with the State Gov, but please stop showing your ignorance.

The Professional Engineer, and the engineering firm, is to seek professional employment based primarily on the qualifications and competencies required for proper accomplishment of the work. This process restricts the Professional Engineer or firm from submitting a price for services until the prospective client has selected that Engineer or firm, based primarily on stated qualifications and competencies, for final contractual negotiations.
Competitive price proposals may not be submitted or solicited for professional services unless all the following restrictions are met:
a. The prospective client has first sought statements of qualifications from interested licensees, and
b. Those licensees chosen by the client on the basis of qualifications and competence for proper accomplishment of the work (not to exceed five) have received in writing a comprehensive and specific Scope of Work, and
c. When the Scope of Work has been prepared, signed and sealed by a licensed Professional Engineer who has attested to the completeness and adequacy of the Scope of Work assuring that it fully identifies and describes the factors affecting the required engineering services, and
d. Assurances have been given by the prospective client that factors in addition to price were considered in selecting the Professional Engineer, and
e. Neither the Professional Engineer that sealed the Scope of Work, nor this Professional Engineer’s firm, will be allowed to submit a price proposal.

How in God's name can you compare a low life like Rudy Warnock to a Doctor. Madison County has paid him more than a Doctor makes in 5 years or more.

If not a SWD, perhaps some other high pressure injection well. Maybe a hazardous waste disposal well.

When I choose a doctor, taxes don't pay the bill. It's either MY money or money I invest in an insurance policy that pays the bill (or not - if they can wiggle out of it).

And to the bonehead who calls himself standing up for his profession - It's not that the law says it's allowed, up here in Madison County, it's the fact that no other engineer ever gets a contract. Surely, like with doctors, there's more than one competent engineer available ten miles from the center of the State.

In the Board's zeal to escape accountability, these blind hogs found an acorn that allows them to stick it to the taxpayer without explanation. They owe nobody an answer, so their answer is: "We do it because we can".

Stick that in your 'engineering practices brief' and smoke it.

@11:59 engineers bid for work all the time. ALL THE TIME

First gay marriage and now earthquakes. Mississippi is trying to be California so bad.

I blame Godzilla. Maybe Mothra, too.

Possibly Rodan......

Engineers are like Doctors. Doctors don't bid to provide medical treatment nor do you ask them to.Doctors don't bid to provide medical treatment nor do you ask them to.

That is a non-sequitur comparison.

11:44. No that wasn't an Oxford House we are drug free. It was that sweet couple that moved in next door that everybody loves.

Stop lying 1:51

It was explosive methane from all the chicken feces from that egg farm next to the Oxford House.

Hmmm - meth? methane? Maybe that's why they're always blowing up.

This used to be a respectable site, however with these idiot posts it become dumber than the worst comic strip.

[And] just as no one forces you to read "the worst comic strip" no one forces you to read JJ. Your complaint is 100% completely moot.
