Facebook. Just Do It.

Getting ready for girls' weekend in Dallas! Woooooohoooooo! Unfortunately I have to be up at the crack o' dawn tomorrow to make it to Love Field (I typed Love Fiend... oh my) to pick up D at 9 a.m.  So excited!!

This week's Southpark was about Facebook. I don't watch the show anymore, but I had a heads-up on this episode. Then I forgot to record it. I've only had a chance to see a few hilarious clips so far. Watch the episode in its entirety at the Southpark website. I will catch it later today. :D

Jeff has a GREAT tip for getting the desperately-needed money to play Bangkok in Mafia Wars. Once you've reached levels 5A and 5B and are no longer playing episodes 1-4, you only need the last two items listed in the Weapons, Armor and Vehicles inventory lists for Bangkok. So you can sell everything else, as long as you aren't using them in fights. Don't forget you can play each level 1-4 four times, so be sure you've either done that or don't care to ever do them, before selling items you need there. You can get billions! And you need it for 5A and 5B. (To see what items you're using in fights, as well as loads of other extremely useful info, use Mafia Wars Helper.)

Sunday Seven

Name seven benefits you think you’d most likely get or are already getting from Facebook.

1. Reconnecting with high school and college friends. That's the original reason I joined. I wasn't really going to "participate" but more just search/find and collect email addresses to keep in touch. Bwahaha!

2. Getting to know local acquaintances better. It's great to see what people like "Janet from PTA" are up to every day, and discover new things you didn't know you had in common.

3. Retail or restaurant savings, like coupons or notifications of specials, when becoming a fan.

4. If you forget where Joe went to school, you can always check his Facebook page.

5. I really do like playing Mafia Wars with my friends.

6. Sharing videos and photos.

7. Facebook chatting with people who don't want to get on Yahoo/MSN/AIM. What is that about anyway? Sign up for real instant messaging, y'all! FB chat is remarkably lame.
