Recently… (A while back)
I killed my FB account. (This is a habit with me)
Yep
For reasons I’d rather not disclose, but numero one’oh is detailed below:
Anyway, I grew weary of reading about how much Jesus loves me, how I need to say ‘amen’ if I agree all the time. (They never tell ya what exactly to say when you do NOT agree), et cetera, et al. So… I just say what I feel, which generally gets me into trouble.
So.. I said some evil things.
Have since apologized.
Been offered a promise of a promise back in Iraq (rhymes, don’t it?)
I will go there.
In’shall’allah
–Peace

The point of this post is thus:
I am back on FB; for whatever good that might mean. (or not mean)

“Is one the moon, Dear Clown, tied to a string for me?”
(He tried, but he could not get it down)
And yes: I have been in – love with Joni Mitchell for neigh onto forty year here.
Oh! And I love Emmy Lou… Too!
And.. Frank Zappa, and Tom Waits, and, Carly Simon, And Lenny Bruce, and… I suppose my love comes cheap.
Sorry ’bout that. So sorry Wilson.
I am sorry Wilson.
(Truly)

It is a battle.
You struggle with it too! Yeah. I get what you mean completely. It’s appealing to be included but there are downsides to being connected in so many ways.
Never had a FB account, never will have a FB account. Glad you have left that evil empire. Here is a funny bit from Louis CK about Facebook etc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEeOle0Lfcc
Yeah: I’m hip.
Thx
Hi Sadie.
“Great Experiment”.
I like that.
FB is about the biggest time-suck I have ever experienced – having said that, it’s how I keep up with a lot of friends & their growing families. I only got on after my grandkids were born – got tired of my friends saying what cool pics/videos were posted & I hadn’t even seen them. Didn’t want to miss out. Now that I’m on it – I’m just another of the millions involved in “The Great Experiment” involving psychology, social norms & interactions, and data mining & its results. But hey, I got some great pics out of it 😉
I just sit on the Scrabble page of FB – that way I get to avoid all the nonsense 😉
Too right! I never overfed a gerbil since then.
Perhaps. But I’m sure once you over feed a gerbil and it explodes, you learn a valuable lesson, no?
Twas a sad commentary on my young life at that time….foreshadowing of things to come, n’est-ce-pas?
An exploding gerbil would be quite traumatising, I’d imagine. Poor thing.
But… it was a sad day and I was devastated.
I shouldn’t have laughed but…
I had a gerbil once when I was a wee chile. I overfed it and it blew up, literally exploded. I am still sorry about that….

I have four. Another is called Dolly after Dolly Parton 🙂 They make great pets!
Love it. I once had a guinea pig. Her name escapes me….
Random fact: I have a guinea pig named Emmy Lou after the one and only (well, not any more). I adore both.
It (FB) do get tedious.
Cheers Sir.
Cakes, cats and homely kids! Facebook! I’m with you on that Sir.
