   haha!! LOVE it! (And hope all goes well, since your Wife's passing)

   I am SO over Facebook. I lose interest in it more and more by the second...

   That's pretty much the ONLY reason why I even sign onto Facebook now. There ARE   
   a few things about certain BBS topics I can get help for faster than the   
   Echoes, even though I try to ask in Echomail first. I use Facebook MORE for   
   advertising my BBSes.   
      
      
    DS> It is suggested on first use, you go in (click on FBP at the top) to    
    DS> I will admit I went in the other day, and unjoined a bunch of groups   
    DS> and pages. I was spending far too much time on Facebook, and have got it   
    DS> now to under 2 dozen groups and pages...mainly for where I'm an admin,   
    DS> or where I post items on a regular basis.   
      
   That's a good idea, I need to do that too. I've been on FB for heck, well over   
   10 years, since MySpace took a dumb. I was on FB trolling for females back in   
   the day! I need to delete al the groups I wsa in like 10+ years ago.. *blush*
