I thought about that with face book the other day. We have a friend whose dad passed away and her evil stepmother’s atty collected information about our friend to hold against her in court. Big brother is watching us. That SOB.

You know, Bill, I thought the same thing about Twitter. Who would want to hear what little I do all day wiping noses and rears? But I got on anyway, and do you know it is the most amazing thing! There are conservatives all over Twitter (just do a search with the string #tcot) and express your opinion, and people will “follow” you like magic! All of a sudden I’m in daily contact with dozens of people I never would have met, getting politically active about the CPSIA, and being generally plugged in. I even got interviewed for a CPSIA story by a reporter from Business Week because of Twitter!

Frank, I’m already following you, and it’s good manners to follow your followers back if you want to use Twitter to network with people. My Twitter username is curiouswork. You should also look up username followtcot and “follow” them; they’re the hub for the conservative Twitter network.

#7 Bunkerboy – I rented The Dark Knight last week. Based on the hullabaloo, I was expecting brilliance from Ledger’s Joker. Instead, I thought he was kind of weak.

Frank. Regards FBI or ‘the authorities’, I absolutely agree and it was the FIRST thought I had when Facebook came out.

I have no facebook account, let alone twitter or any of the others. Lol.

Sheer genius on the part of the FBI or CIA, or was it CIC or maybe CID.. Anyway.

Not for me. I still refuse to do text messaging on a cell phone though…

Holy cow! Jimmy Page is SIXTY-FIVE today. So is “One Day At A Time”‘s Bonnie Franklin, but who cares. And Richard Nixon would have been ninety-six, if that limey rat David Frost hadn’t forced him to blow his brains out on national TV, after admitting he gave the order to the Ohio National Guard to start firing at Kent State (okay, now everybody shake your jowls violently and repeat after me: “I’m saying, when the President does it, it’s NAUGHT illegal!”).

Langella will probably win the Oscar for that crap, unless of course they give it to dead junkie-fag cowboy Heath Ledger for his impression of the worst street mime ever in “The Dark Knight”…

If your account is, how would we know? Aside from the use of the semi-colon, that is.

Then again, it used to be a big tool for the hospital ERs too. They used to use the searches on social web sights to find out the ID of John and Jane Does. Actually saved a few lives.

You laugh, but as far back as two years ago, I know of cases that were being solved using peoples Facebook and Myspace accounts. Twitter will just be the next level.

Of course now that everyone sets there account to private, it doesn’t work as well.

Holy cr**. My kids told me about “twitter”, but I didn’t actually think it was real. Can there possibly be that many stupid, self-centered people on the planet? First of all, who the fu** cares what anyone else is doing every 30 seconds or so? Second, if you want to know what your friends are doing right now, hang out with them! And finally, what kind of narcissistic society are we becoming when people think that the entire world want to/needs to know/fu**ing CARES what we are doing every minute of our lives? Is this for people too fu**ing stupid to get on a reality show or Jerry Springer?

Sheeeee-it. 8:45 a.m. and I already want a bourbon over ice to make the world make sense.
