• Myspace is an interesting little tool, I'm sure most people know already.  But it got me to thinking, how one can look up almost anyone (of my generation and younger generally)  and there is a reasonable chance you can find them on myspace.  You can see pictures, find out where they are in the world, know if they are married, single, divorced, gay or straight, have kids......... lots of, and perhaps too much personal info?

  So I was just running through my mind, looking for past friends and acquaintances, seeing who I could find on myspace.  I've found a few.  But it makes me then wonder, add them as a friend?  Its a little harmless, but it opens up the past as well, especially when there are folks you've not seen or talked to in a decade or more.  I found someone that I had not talked to in about 10-11 years, and I wondered, should I say hi?  Why should I?  Is it even welcome?  Would I be dragging up a past that is long forgotten and irrelevant today?

  Well I'll ponder it, but I think I should probably leave it alone.
