I’ve been complaining about Twitter nudging it’s way into my day and now, another thingy, called FaceBook. I knew it was out there but had no intention of getting involved. Overnight I WAS involved. As I mentioned earlier, I think, my son is now in Afghanistan for another year-long tour. He has E-Mail, and a computer, plus telephone capability funded by his Mom’s constant sending of AT&T phone cards but the family, all of them, are now on FaceBook sending messages, most of which don’t mean much to us Old Folks.
Twitter is more my speed. You have something to say, you say it, and get off. FaceBook has all of these other side roads that can sidetrack me in a heart beat. Today I found out that my personality is akin to Snoopy, Charlie Browns dog. Could be worse I guess.
Am I against this stuff. Of course not. A year is a long time and I applaud all of the gang for keeping the flow going, so far. I only hope it doesn’t fade out a few months down the road when it will really be needed to keep the moral and spirits up.
Number next. “Balaam Gimbles Gumption” the book I mentioned. I finished it and it’s worth every minute of reading you put into it. Good story. Eccentric characters. Small town folks with a twist.
