I X FACEBOOK

Jack still hates FACEBOOK even though,

as a long lost (Thai Cooking School) friend pointed out,
"It has helped reconnect with so many long lost friends."

This is true,
but "collecting" friends is not the same as
"reconnecting with" friends.
Shame on you lazy friends.

It will take a lot more true "reconnecting" to convince
Jack that this whole FACEBOOK business is worth any effort.

Seems a big excuse to waste time at work.

I'm just waiting for Douglas Coupland to write
a new best-seller:
FACEBOOK, Generation ne"X"t.
