3. The younger Trumpss would be better off if they had watched Rocky and Bullwinkle...

...in their youth. Natasha Fatale was the first thing I thought of when the cast of characters at that meeting was revealed.

4. It never ceases to amaze me how many people are so willing to "friend"

someone on Facebook that they don't even know. Which gives complete strangers access to all of the personal information they post to that site. I get three or four such requests per year. I just dismiss them. Hell, I dismiss half the requests from people I DO know.

6. I don't trust Facebook's privacy protection anyway.

What you write is correct but it doesn't go far enough. I have no confidence that ONLY the people I "friend" will have access to personal information I post.

My Facebook privacy policy is to assume that anything I post will be available to my worst enemy under the most horrible circumstances.

In other words, I don't post much personal information.
