You can clown on it, if you want, but...

FACEBOOK is awesome. I hate the applications. I don't want you to send me your drink or your Cause. Why because fake drinks make you thirsty and your Causes alienate me. So thanks for that.

What I like is the connection. For someone who spent a big part of his childhood meeting strangers and making them friends, this site is magnificent. As a kid I would go to summer camp or I would go to Church Conferences and I would meet (at least) 20 new people per summer. Was I the best of friends with all of them? Nope? Did I ever see most of them again (after that summer)? Nope. However, I do have a lot of great memories.

This Facebook site is unbelievable when it comes to flooding my head with the most tear causing memories. I am seeing people on there that I haven't spoken a word to or thought of in 15+ years. That's (just under) half my life! Sick.

If you are hating on Facebook, just because it's hip to do so, you're either a fool or a person who never had a lot of friends. I feel sorry for you either way.
