I check my mail box once, maybe twice a month.

Everything I've sent to WestSideBilly in the mail is still purple.

 

Some cards are just right, glad I found one

I wonder what a jar of bacon fat would look like after a couple weeks in Southern California summer heat

 

Yeah that one was perfect for mom


I love when their addressed to vtecmom and or Hipmom

 

Probably excellent. All the chunks would have floated to the bottom, saving me a step!

 

another :deflate: trying to share some good news > " yeah I saw it on FB "

takes away the personablensess of the news IMO


Yeah I realize it was the persons choice to put it there

 

It is really strange how many people find out about significant life events via social media. I'm still of the old school and if it's something important, I tell people directly first.

 

I think it's good to tell the close friends/family in person or over the phone before posting it on FB...

 

I kind of disagree with this. I think social media has made the voice of the unheard and put it right in our face. A lot of events that have been kept on the down low by traditional media outlets are now brought to us via twitter/facebook/reddit.

Granted there's telling you close friends / SO about something you read in the papers but what facebook allows for is reaching the audience that you don't necessarily know but gets the word out about your cause, your situation, whatever that may be
