Incivility kills memberships. Spewing BS online that you'd think twice about in public or in person. Having to explain yourself to someone on keyboard steroids. Circular arguments and bickering. Just plain rudeness and vulgarness. All that without being able to erase those who offend make some think twice or ten times about posting anything.

I'm on FB......Because my Kids are on FB.....I'll be damned if they are going to be on a Social Network site and I'm not going to know all about how it works.

Too many Weirdos out there

Facebook is not going away unfortunately. Honestly I can't even keep up with the things I need to block when goin on there now. If I see one more inspirational hallmark card quote in pastel, or a plate of someone's crappy food I'm going to drop kick my laptop out of the window. facebook was cool, now its just ruined. I hope it doesnt ruin this site:confused:

It's fun to see what people you've known in the past are doing without actually having to talk to them.

Facebook is destroying itself from within
 
Stock was trading at or below $20.00 yesterday. The love affair with the potential for an unlimited advertising platform has fallen through. The Z man knew how to steal the idea from two other dum chits, but can't figure out how to make it work publically. I hope it falls through the floor.

Im allergic to chocolate so i substitute the Oreo for a Twinkie, i have heard of this new fangled crazy of a deep fried Twinkie you speak of but never tried it. I also heard of deep friend ice cream but im lactose so we dont want to bring the end of the world any closer.

Despite the great run of fish in the Canal so far this year, I still think the bass are in trouble, and I'm giving them a break. And working on improving myself, health-wise.

I notice you have been hitting the bike hard good for you Mike, you only have one body and life so you might as well take care of it.

I have not been seriously fishing since last year :( It's a bummer but so many things in life get in the freikin way....:uhuh:
