I am a discredit to the Facebook generation…

While I did succumb to peer pressure last year and launched my own Facebook site (technically a site for Mrs. That Dan Guy and I), I have been worse than abysmal in updating it, or even visiting it myself.

When I checked the last time a couple of days ago, I had about 30 assorted “requests” of one kind or another, some dating back to the early 1970’s. That can’t be good.

I also set up a dummy Yahoo e-mail address (insert your own punch line here…), because Facebook requires information that should NEVER be given out to a third party. So, I don’t actually ever RECEIVE e-mails from Facebook. But I do appear to get them even if I ain’t aware of ‘em. I had a “friend” request from a real friend of ours, which dated back to JUNE!! JUNE, I say!!! How embarrassing!

I think I may need to get a bit more aggressive in making a daily cyber-space trek to the site, and maybe even check out ways that I can make it more useful. While I do enjoy the opportunity to receive a virtual flower or hug, maybe there’s a way I can send “requests” out for actual poker chips, or gold doubloons. Does Wal-Mart still take gold doubloons?

This whole Facebook thing is for the loons…

Chow for now!!
