As it should be...it is seeing the shine in their eyes when they behold a knight in armor that sort of makes the whole day for me.

Nice, I never even saw the photographer that time. I'm usually pretty alert about cameras around me, but I was sitting facing one way for a while there. :)

It looks like someone posted a shot on facebook of the three of us from Sunday. We'll have to get you on there so we can start tagging you in the photos. :)

You guys are gonna talke me into it, I know it...Meta and I had been talking about doing a page at length on FB- my whole family's on it; but we're just not that into it.  I like flying under the radar as opposed to being on it.

I suppose I'll get to it eventually...everyone else already has!  lol

Yeah, I was highly resistant to it at first. And then once I signed up, I didn't use it at all for probably a good 6 months. But then a certain critical mass was reached, where most of my friends were on there, and I was finding old long-lost friends and finding I could also keep in touch with faire friends and the like, that's when it became part of my daily life.

Now we all share photos, pass around links to funny videos, etc. It's a nice lightweight way for everyone to keep in touch.

Just note that if you post a ton of useless stuff constantly, I'll "hide" you from my news feed and never see you again... lol :)

OR you can let your wife become addicted to it and then create a FB account for you so she can send herself some Farmville items vicariously through "you"!  ;)

Facebook has a whole bunch of games connected to it that people can play. Most of them encourage you to recruit your friends into the game by making bonus items available to you for spamming them with game updates. Farmville and Mafia Wars are two of the most popular. Luckily, you can block individual applications from showing up in your news feed, so if you hate them, you don't have to see them. But usually you'll get pretty annoyed by them first. :)

Been there done that.  Playing knighthood requires that you have no life or job and that all your friends join to boos your fighting points. Ah, my glorious castle!
