I guess I'm getting old and cranky but the whole Social Networking thing has me just a little bewildered. I'm not sure I will ever "get it".
Getting on Facebook is sorta like sending out an invitation to everyone you know saying, in effect:

the one piece of e-mail that I "might" find interesting."
I will admit that I have received a few pictures and comments that I have found interesting but they hardly seem worth the effort to locate them.
Is it possible that I am just missing the true meaning of life in the 21st Century?

you got that right Tom, I dont get it either...
Tom, I believe you and your friend, Mike are in the elite group of people who DO get what Facebbook is about. Frankly, I enjoy selecting friends and meeting people who could be potential friends. I don't want to meet my friends' friends. WHY! There are so many people in the world. That's why I joined my woodcarving club, to meet people with that interest. I have great new friends! Focus on your blog. Many enjoy it - I am sure.
P.S. Of course, I am one who enjoys your blog.
