Okay, SoWallers. I have been getting requests for people to be on my friend list on MySpace.com. Some of these people, like the one above, I don't know about. Please help me decide if they should be my friend or not. We will start with this one. Here is her profile. What do you say -- yes or no?

That is Big George Jackson singing, "Southern in My Soul." Awesome blues! Abigail aint to shabby either. You should read her bio. She recently played with Bela Fleck at Bonnaroo.

abigail has been quite "friend"ly with bela this last year. :cool:

believe it or not sj, i don't watch any talk shows - i can say that proudly. i usually only watch monsters hd, or discovery,learning,history channels. i will be glad to get back to the nasa channel this weekend when the shuttle launches - i have sure missed watching those ! and i don't know, something about myspace just creeps me out. i get a bad feeling from it, so i am avoiding it.

I know exactly what you mean, Audie. I feel the same way. Now I keep hearing stories about how potential employers are 'Googling' their applicants to see if they're on MySpace, FaceBook, etc. Sometimes what you put on those sites can keep you from getting a job.

The other part of the news stories is always about how outraged the kids and their parents are when they find out they're getting turned down for a job for that very reason. If you want to play, you might pay!

Except for my Sowal friends, I'm pretty much turned off by most people I meet. :floor: :floor: So why invite more people into my life via cyberspace? There's a lot of weirdos out there.

I see your points MKH and audie, but I sure wish I had had access to this when my kids were teens.

I glance at my daughter's myspace every now and then and trust me, Miss Kitty, it could turn your hair prematurely gray what goes on there. :eek:

you're my kinda people mkh. i see enough freaks, geeks, and weirdos at work, i am going to avoid them in my personal life. i also read where employers are checking out myspace etc. i am just so paranoid about computer viruses and stuff like that. i have read in magazines about some of the stuff that goes on at myspace, esp. the pedophiles. etc. too creepy for audie !

The real Jesus wouldn't have to log on to myspace to communicate with you, now would he?

He's with you where ever you go. For Moses it was the burning bush for SJ...perhaps myspace.

Everyone has a friend in Jesus, but not everyone has him in their top 8. :lol:

I for one am glad to be your friend SJ !



He isn't my friend. I thought he was a freak posing as my friend so I deleted him. Little did I know that he was the Kurt of MySpace. :floor:

Thanks, but no. I have been rejecting the hoes and biatches all by myself lately.
