Joe,

JM>   I go on Facebook a few times a week, usually about 30 minutes at a time.

  I've about gotten down to that level.

JM>   The people I "follow" are people I know, friends to one degree or
JM>another, co-workers, etc.

  Those who had previously gotten friend requests in Messenger, can
still send me a note, but otherwise, I have no "friends" on Facebook. I
do have friends here on the BBS, and with ham radio and square dancing,
but there comes a point when you just have to have time for yourself.

JM>   The only posting I do is replying to something.  I don't post my daily
JM>activities.  I don't want others to feel worthless compared to my exciting
JM>life.  :)

  Some of them told of their bathroom habits and sex life...like I
really needed to know such. :P

JM>  But FB is sometimes good in catching up with old friends who have
JM>disappeared over time.

  That's how I got in contact with some of the relatives. They're
planning a reunion next August in central Ohio, but there's too many red
flags that will keep me from going.

  I thought I was going to have to cancel the planned square dance
festival trip to Clinton, Arkansas next month, in the aftermath of the
next Low-T implants in the buttocks (left untreated, it can cause or
aggravate diabetes and cardiovascular issues), because of the long drive
(about 2 hours if the roads are clear and the traffic is light). But,
they cleared me to take the trip. Had they not, it would've meant my
travel outside central Arkansas was FINISHED.

  It's bad enough I had to cancel the train trip to New Mexico this week
for a ham radio event.

Daryl
