                         FACEBOOK                                                

I was already working 60 hours a week and had my hands full with my Blog when my wife called me to ask me to stop by the library and fill out my profile on Facebook. Now, I am as compassionate as the next guy, but I told her, "I don't have time for that tonight." But, she insisted that I stop and look at the account since she had recently found a woman to help her set the account up... And, this woman had been gracious enough to be my first friend. (Everyone see where I'm going with this?) Eventually, I got the account opened, and was surprised to see all these faces (about 50 of them) wanting to be my friend.
All I had to do was mark a box that said, "Add a friend," which is what I did. I checked all 50 boxes in 5 mintutes flat. The next time Diana ran into the woman, she wasn't very happy, "Some of my friends have contacted me to complain that your husband is harassing them. I tried to tell them that he is new at this," she said, "that he doesn't know Facebook is just for family and friends, but now they don't want anything to do with me."  "Sorry." Diana told her, "But, half of the people replied back accepting his request." I tried to apologize, via e-mail, but Facebook blocked me. It seems one woman was so mad, she reported me to the Facebook police. Since that time, I'm back on good terms with Facebook and haven't added any new people to my account - unless I know them.
