It's too bad that facebook is so nosey, and it's forever, so I haven't joined facebook either. But I'm missing out on a lot of poultry stuff. Sadly the American Buckeye club is on Facebook and it's a private group. I wish they hadn't done that.

Facebook can be quite the pain in the bottom. I've been considering logging out for good, but then people run their lives through it now so you can miss out on a lot.

It's a bit mind boggling how much they presume they have a right to demand, even more mind boggling how much info people are willing to give out.
I have stood behind a person purchasing a minor item at a cash and happily rhyming out her phone number and e-mail, not an isolated incident either, while the sales person cheerfully announces they never use it, or give it out to anybody?
Really? Why collect it then?

Yeah it's sad a lot of poultry groups are on Facebook now and unavailable unless you sign up.
