Go By Yourself To Any Event--Believe Me I Know That's Not Easy

"It's nice to meet you" is something I've heard often. Let me rephrase that. It's what I've read many times in emails I've received on the social networking site Facebook. Yes, I gave in and joined Facebook a few years ago.

I became a member for various reasons, and in no particular order, to see if that site is good for finding a date(no luck there). While Facebook is good for many other things if you want a date Facebook is the last place for finding a girl/woman/lady(whatever the heck the correct term is these days).

I also wanted contacts since as I mentioned elsewhere on here I love to write and though I'm not using them as contacts("never say 'never' " as the saying goes) I did find two of my favourite newspaper columnists who are now on my Friends list on Facebook. They both write for the Toronto Sun. One is Rachel Sa. I've been a fan of her writing since she was an intern in her teen years at the paper. Always very insightful and no matter how serious the topic she still finds just the right moment to instill her sense of humour and still get the message across.

The other columnist I'm a fan of is Michael Coren. He's very controversial and isn't afraid to speak up no matter what others may think. Coren also writes for a bunch of other publications as well as being cohost along with Stephen LeDrew on a radio talk-show called Two Bald Guys with Strong Opinions(heard Monday to Friday from 3 to 4pm Toronto time on CFRB 1010).
