My Space - Facebook - What?
Well, it's official. I am stupid. I've just spent forty-five minutes trying to create a facebook page and a myspace page and I had to stop before I threw a fit and kicked my computer. All the kids I teach and every person under the age of 100 has either a facebook or myspace page, and me being the hip young person I am thought I would join the crowd. Oh, no my friends, it's not an easy task. After signing up for both, facebook and the ever popular myspace, I tried to create the pages. I answered every personal question known to mankind about my personal history, educational history, work history, hobbies, likes, dislikes, pets (both current and deceased), relationship status (both current and past "I can only hope they meant the ones I'll admit to"), location, religious beliefs and political affiliations, and a list of things they really don't want to hear about, and then I couldn't find it. WTF? I hate to admit it, but, I just love those three little letters :) Sometimes, they're the only way to express just how confused I am. I also love the expression "This can only be explained by using the word, cluster." That was one of my father's sayings and he knew what he was talking about, but, I digress. Let's get back to the facebook - myspace adventure. I lost everything I typed, I couldn't figure out how to put pictures or cute graphics on the page, and I guess no one wants to be my friend, because I couldn't go to any pages for the people I know without first requesting them to "friend" me and even that wouldn't work. I give up! Facebook and MySpace will have to do without me. I guess that old saying is true, This old dog can't learn any new tricks. I'm going to go listen to records (that's right, those round black vinyl things) or manually change the stations on my tv, while talking on the rotary phone with one of my "old" friends.
