Facebooking

8:30 am

Good morning Facebook. Let us see what comments I received for my photo album of fifty types of grasses.

What? No comments? Not a single “Like”? I tell you. These “friends” have no interest in photography or interesting subjects like grass.

Talking about interesting subjects, I bet folks will be really interested in this article on the decline of Inner Mongolia in today’s edition of New York Times. What a timely well-written piece! It is only 50 pages long. Let me post it on Facebook.

11:30 am

Here you go. Dan has posted an album of pigeons. Why does he think anyone gives a damn about pigeons? Who is going to look at them? Waste of electrons.

Also, I see an article about the fine art of Zen Buddhism posted by Alex. How long is it? Twenty pages? Where does he think I will get time to read a twenty-page article?

2:30 pm

It is already mid afternoon and not a single person has commented on the article on Inner Mongolia. I tell you no one cares what is going on in the world.

Oh, I see. Subhash is now in Bogota. Why does he think I give a crap regarding where he is? Besides, what is he doing in Bogota? May be he is involved with drug smuggling!

While we are on the subject of travel, let me post my daughter’s pictures---yes the ones where she is giving a lecture in the elementary school in Sudan. People will be so impressed with how well we have brought up our children.

5:30 pm

Not again. More pictures of Sam’s son singing in the school? Ok, I get it, he is talented, but how many pictures do I have to see?

No comments on my daughter’s pictures. No one cares. I bet no one has yet read the article I posted either. I give up.

But before I do that, I bet people will be interested in this album of my fifty pictures of icicles.
