FACEBOOK

I created a facebook page today. Lisa has been off track for the last 2 weeks and got bored on Friday so she created a facebook page and suggested that I do the same. I am interested to see how many friends I have out there in cyber space.

I haven't done a facebook page and have resisted because I don't have the time to manage it. I don't know, I guess I see it as a waste of time, or maybe it's just the anti-social, anal accountant mentality. We'll see what comes of it.

I have been getting pressure or asked why I haven't blogged for a while. My last blog was around Thanksgiving. I haven't really had much to rant about lately and I haven't had a lot of time lately. Work consumes a majority of my time these days and I don't have time during the day to add to my blog, and I can't do it at work. When I get home at nights the last thing I want to do is sit in front of a computer because that is what I do all day at work.

I was going to blog a couple of weeks ago after the inaugaration but just never got around to it. I didn't watch much of the inauguration, but what I did see and hear I didn't much care for. I was at work when it happened and heard a little bit of it on the radio when I wasn't interrupted by co-workers. What I did hear was the last of the closing prayer by a southern preacher, then I watched it later that night when I got home from work. I did not like what I heard and saw. His prayer was more of a sermon than it was a prayer. The last line of his prayer when he started rhyming I found, as a white man, to be offensive. It goes to show the double standard that still exists these days. I thought that President Obama was about unifying the country, but the preachers words I felt were divisive and uncalled for. If he wanted to give a sermon, then the organizers should have allocated some time to him to preach.

By the way, if anyone responds to my facebook invitations and asks me to be a supporter of President Barack Obama, the answer is a solid NO!!

That's my rant for now. Later.
