How do you download the adultery app?

Default FB

Well I'll Confess WC I Guess is my FaceBook
But even then I don't frequent this place that much.
Even though i do enjoy it I'll never Register
I still have this Thing that I enjoy my privacy and thats why things like Fb
or the Internet never see a picture of mine

Theres already a way to much behind the scenes tracking about ones search habits
they say its to enhance my browsing enjoyment......Is it really I can think of other times in history
that certain people like to track there citizens movements...I Know I know Your going to laugh
about that and no I'm not perinoid.......But hey I'm an old guy and have seen some things

Off topic there But if this thing we call the internet comes crashing down and it will
Be from catastrophic failure or Evil forces the fall out is going to be the worlds biggest disaster we've
ever seen
I don't believe the newer Generation would handle it well

I had to laugh last night My Son and His Girlfriend are sitting on our couch watching TV and both of them had a lap top on there laps and there I phones in hand texting not looking up at the tv or each other


In Conclusion
People are better at communicating now a days
Just not on a one to one level

I'm internted out now
So I'll hang it up


Oh And Juls Your Right What i just did is Just like FB I Guess

I stand by my original comment. Apparently some of you who are critical of my beliefs can't see the broader picture. One third of all new divorce filings mention facebook as a reason. Perhaps if you read the news you would see that my statement about adultery is fact! Sorry.....Truth.

I have no experience with that matter but know many who have and It has ruined many a family. I am not ignorant to those who have great experiences with FB .....but it sounds like some on here are completely ignorant to what kind of gateway it has been used for by many of others. I choose to hang out with friends or contact by phone. I agree, your experience is indeed your own.

To each their own but I really like Facebook. Have reconnected with people I went to high school with or used to work with that I would have not spoken to otherwise. Does that mean we weren't good friends? nope, just lost touch. Impossible to e-mail everyone all the time. But, I can choose to read or post something if I want.

I have also found two employees through facebook. Posted that I had a job opening and other pharmacists I know replied back and said I know someone who might be looking. So, two ads at $400+ per ad, not bad.

It is a "social" website and quite frankly I don't see any difference from this site to that.

Do people have affairs because of FB? I doubt it. My guess is they would have done it anyway. Just an easy excuse.

It's part of our culture, and people are going to be people regardless. Like on here, there's going to be people who try to drag you down to their level, and there's going to be people who lift you up and inspire you. And like life, facebook is what you make of it. You can dwell on the negative aspects and ignore the positives if thats what makes you happy (unhappy). I've known people who met their spouses on facebook. I've also known people who've rekindled old relationships, too. Facebook is just a computer program and people make it whatever they want it to be.

Here's another example, a young co-worker developed cancer. Was off work for quite awhile and kept everybody informed on how his Chemo was going and he got a huge amount of support from friends and co-workers. The pictures were pretty scary, but you knew what he was going through. He is an inspiration to us all and I'm going to work with him today. Live strong!

Another co-worker had a heart attack and open heart surgery as a result. You can stay in direct contact with people.

Thumbs up FB

It is what you make it..myself I like it, for various reasons..

1. Connected with a lot of old friends, as High School.

2. I find it very funny at times, lots of good jokes..some are not..

3. I also find more fishing info on there that is quite good...
( Many of the guides for different areas are on there and promote their Business, with pictures and more.)

4. I am guessing here, but I would estimate that 75% + or - of the top fishing PROS are on Face Place, some of which post very good info and updates when fishing. That is all species of fish...and many good videos as well...

5. For those who wish to promote their small business it is a very good tool...

As far as the NEGATIVE stuff that can happen anywhere, if you are looking for that...

AGAIN it is what you make it....

to add to mud puppy, I was able to follow a friend from high school who had both his legs amputated below the knee from diabetes at age 40 and recently had a kidney transplant. His wife and daughter would post updates on FB. Not like they would know who to e-mail in his contact list.

Like others have said, it is what you make of it.

I would also guess if you asked my wife, fishing is a colossal waste of time. But, I enjoy it. So does that make it wrong?? Depends on who you ask. Just like FB.
