Here's a perfect example of FB drivel. One of my ex-colleagues just posted this, up in arms about Chely Wright's marriage:

Marriage is a sacrament. A sacred bond between a man and a woman. If we turn a blind eye to sin it becomes acceptable behavior.

Which is all well and good if that's what you believe.......except the poster is on her 3rd marriage.

I'm the queen of defriending people on Facebook. I came to the conclusion that I never gave a hoot about them before Facebook, why should I now.....

ewag - I'm one of the warehouse 13 nerds! We are a bit behind on the season though since hulu gets them later.
I am so pleased with this season! What do you think?

My favorite so far was the most recent "Don't Hate the Player" (another cross-over with some Eureka folks) but I'll say no more until you've seen it!

I am super psyched they'll be making a 4th season!

I posted an article about my church voting to allow gay pastors in committed relationships and got comments from my MIL and BIL about using "the whole word" (bible) at their church, as if either of them actually do that.

Dictionary.com has a word of the day. Today it was odoriferous. Which is fairly easy to incorporate if you have a dog, son or husband.
Odoriferous haboobs can be easily taken care of by more attention to sanitary habits.

Did you hear that Warehouse 13 was picked up for another season and that Eureka is being cancelled after the 13 episodes for next year (season 5)? I am so sad about Eureka - I love that show!!
I heard about Eureka. Glad to know Warehouse 13 was at least picked up!
I'm waiting to see where the storyline in Alphas goes. The whole Rosetta episode mirrored debates in some autism circles.

I love my friends (at least, the ones I haven't quietly blocked). THEIR friends, otoh...some of them make me wonder what they see in me, if those people are representative of their social circles.

How do they feel about TV preachers and their ostentatious displays of piety while wearing mixed-fiber clothing?

I went from 143 friends to 67 at one point recently. Only three have messaged saying "wow, you disappeared! What happened?" Those I refriended, with apologies for having lost them in the shuffle.
