I figured it was a small earthquake, although it was very quick, like a sonic boom. It violently shook my back patio sliding glass window for about half a second. Hundreds of people all across Orange County experienced this also–and they informed “Science Dude” Gary Robbins, who checked and ruled out an earthquake, a weather event, a passing asteroid and a space shuttle landing. Camp Pendleton was firing off explosives Tuesday, but if felt at all it would have been strongest in the very southern part of the county, and a base official who lives in San Clemente told Robbins he didn't feel anything.

STOP THE PRESSES! A mysterious middle-aged woman has scammed two Newport Beach clinics out of Botox treatments. . . . DON'T FIRE UP THOSE PRESSES YET! “Actress” Tawny Kitaen, who probably knows her way around a Botox needle (hmmm…), has listed her Newport Beach home at $3.45 million.
