Dennis RomeroA 4.0 earthquake struck near Malibu last night, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
It wasn't a result of David Geffen rattling his saber to ensure that outsiders don't come to the public beach outside his home. Nor was it John McEnroe throwing a tantrum. It wasn't a raucous anti-Semitic festival at Mel Gibson's house, either.
According to the USGS …
… it was just an earthquake of the mild variety that happened at 10:14 p.m.
The epicenter was 30 miles south-southwest of Malibu, offshore, according to the survey.
