That is funny because that is what happened to Myspace and one reason that Facebook became more popular. Everything is a cycle in life.

Well I do the audio a lot now that my eyes are so bad and Angela's Ashes is really good. My daughter said she read the book and it was even better. I would recommend that or another one I really enjoyed was Casca the Eternal Mercenary. Happy reading!

Where? I've been on about 3 weeks and have been reading constantly and only saw one mildly run comment about a celebrity and when said celeb was defended, there was no argument, just explanation of the point of view.. this place is great! A total blast of fresh air... Doesn't need a bit more moderation

"Waiting for them to know your gone" that is cute, you have a nice sense of humor if you were being sarcastic. I read it that way but I am a very sarcastic person. lol

Damn that's a lot of friends! How did you get so many? Good on you for recruiting 19.

@Karma-Fride I was being sarcastic . I've spent the afternoon explaining to a few people that they will have no way to contact me . No Facebook , no Instagram , no Whatsapp . They still won't sign up on IDW .

@BHB_UK I've been a blogger for 11 years . I developed a global readership across several social networks . I am currently posting the links to my blog posts in my group here , Real History . My Real History group on MeWe has 388 members in a little less than a year .

When I was younger I raised 4 children and started my own small business. There was not much time to do anything other than work and take care of my children. Now that they are all adults and I am 58 I have the luxury of being able to find issues I care about and try and make a difference in the world I am leaving to my grandchildren. So I can be over the top at times on activism of issues I find very important to me. I do not mind debating them and listening to another side I always say there is three sides to a coin most of us just see the side in front of us, some try to see the other side but very few of us step back and try to look at the very thin side. However FB people do not like to debate they make their point you try to counter it or even ask questions on why they believe this or that and they start name calling or insulting. I still was raised if you have nothing nice to say then say nothing. Anytime I feel the urge to tell someone where to go or what to do with something I try very hard to just say nothing and let the conversation drop. I do agree with you about having to make a special point of going to a friend's wall to see their post and yet ads pop up all over.

@Karma-Fride - I used to love arguing with people as long as it remained civil. It was, at first, but it later became so nasty that I backed away from it. I'm in my 50's as well, and maybe I just lack patience for it anymore.

@JillianClayton I do think your right about the age playing a part in the amount of b.s. I put up from people. Also for me I think how I personally feel about that person also plays a part. I mean by that if I am having a debate or even a difference of opinion with someone and I think more of this person's character then I am more apt to keep discussing with them about an issue. However if it is someone that is lacking of character I will shut it down. Not wasting my time. FB has alot of people that from what they write and how they respect others or lack of it shows no character and I shut them down. I guess you could say that if they are not worthy of my attention I see no reason to give them my attention. That does make me sound either egotistic or a woman that has a clear mind of who she is and what she wants and who she is going to spend her time..
