Facebook Friends

This article is true. I know that I have way more friends on Facebook then in real life, but I don’t have a ridiculous amount of friends, like a lot of my friends do. I do think that social networking could be getting more dangerous because, like the article said people would rather give a full name to a stranger than a number, which they may think is less dangerous but it really isn’t. I know that on Facebook or any other social network I make sure that I do not give away anything to personal, though I do know people where they will say anything. Such as telling Facebook that there going away on vacation, I make sure I do not say anything like that. Facebook is fun, and it is a much easier way to get in contact with someone, but you do have to watch and make sure it’s safe.
Oprah says goodbye after 25 years
Posted on: May 26, 2011
Oprah Winfrey, after 25 years of being the queen of talk show says goodbye. Her last episode was yesterday, and it was very emotional, in the audience, at home, and for her. I know that my mom would watch Oprah everyday after I came home from school. Oprah’s episodes were always exciting, especially her giveaway videos! Though I guess it is just her time to say goodbye, but before she leaves she thanks America, because she wouldn’t have gotten to where she is now without all of us.
Musical Jeans

This video is quite random, and I actually really enjoyed it. This person used 1000 jeans, with sounds from the zippers, buttons, ripping sounds, and smacking the jeans together. It was actually pretty cool to see that something as simple as a pair of jeans, with a little creativity could make a great song.
