| "Time sure flies, birthdays come and go and before long your life has passed before your eyes..." James Kimo" Rosen above at Rocky River Alaska across the bay from Homer Alaska 1985. |
I have over one thousand friends on Facebook, most of whom I have no idea who they are. I started befriending everyone who sent me a friend invite and actually starting inviting others to be my friend on the recommendation of Facebook. I did this since I post a daily blog on Facebook and was hoping for increased readership. The fact of the matter is; I do have an increased readership due to Facebook, in addition to many friends I have never met.
This past January I celebrated a birthday and to my surprise I had over 100 birthday greetings, I think I knew 12 of the people who sent me a birthday greeting, all others I had no idea who they were, none the less it sure felt good thinking I really had that many friends!
Now I can go back to being the quiet hermit I am until next January when again I will hopefully achieve rock-star stature!

I love my birthdays, and I love the chance to recognize in each person I know what I find unique and special in them, and taking one day out of the year to reflect on why that person is special to me.
And Kimo, you're one of the good ones!"

I'll check it after the sabbath! Not that I'm religious, just in a mellow mode, and sometimes those commenter's get the best of me, which is the reason I quit commenting a few months back...

Douglas Dunn said via facebook;"Hey James Kimo Rosen, I'll have to look over the comments I posted yesterday and see if I can work them into another letter to send to TGI. Since it does address specific Kauai conditions, maybe I can make something work..."
Doug, just explain it from your point on view living in Escondido as you did yesterday, yada yada yada....
Thanks Harmony, your lucky number friend 13!
