Going back across the border 5/14/2020

I continue to visit here a bit, as it was here where I first saw AzBeachBoy's Thanksgiving Day potluck, and asked if we could join the party. Met quite a few great people that weekend, and the annual potluck continues thanks to their generosity. We don't travel to PP that often, but have made Thanksgiving week an annual for about 13 years or so, with a trip in springtime once in a while avoiding the spring break and Semana Santa crowds. One of our favorite places to visit, hope to continue visiting for many more years, something special about that place. Stay safe, stay healthy.

My wife likes face book for some features like memories and reminders. I tried to get into it but I cant figure it out or dont have the patience to wade through all the crap. If I am going to get waist deep in anything I want it to be the SOC! Cant wait to get back, everyone have a great weekend.

JJ, you forgot all the people on PP Fans and a few other Penasco related groups who ask if the Boarder is open yet.
Too many use their phones, so the auto correct kicks in, so border is usually spelled wrong and don't care to correct.
There are some really clueless people on PP Fans also PP Friends.
Many are lazy and use it as a search engine so they can get 4 different answers with 3 of them wrong.
To get a correct answer you have to wade thru hidden messages threads and lot's of off the rail comments,
most of the good info that get's posted winds up getting lost in the thread as FB posts them.
Post's are not always in a timeline order. I still can't believe FB is as popular as it is.
It's terrible vs RPT.
Facebook is now a NATIONAL SECURITY CONCERN. I think it needs regulation. Fuck, I hate Facebook so much. It makes you think, what is this garbage that people spend 25% of their day viewing. True story. 5 years ago I was convinced that I was ADDICTED to Facebook. It had become so habitual that it resembled any other addiction. I think watched the 60 minutes segment on how and why people become addicted to Facebook. It's a real thing and psychology is the reason. The brain likes positive reinforcement and reward. Facebook operates the same way in which a slot machine does. Your brain becomes invested in looking at your phone for "new notifications". Every time Facebook notifies you that you have new notifications, same effect as pulling the slot machine for the "reward" aspect. Anyways, I was completely certain that I had formed a habit. I had. It wasn't a question. This is where being a somewhat SELF AWARE person helps. July 2015 I decided to try and leave Facebook for 2 weeks. I signed out. The first couple of days it was tough because habitually you periodically want to open your phone. Once you get past that phase it becomes easier. Long story short because I can talk for days lol, 10 months later and my account was still de-activated. May 2016 I had met ED B and some other CHOLLA BAY LOCALS that wanted to stay connected on Facebook so I logged back in. I NEVER have the desire to check FB now and some times I go weeks without opening it. When I do go on there now it's to read the Cholla Bay locals page and 2 fishing pages for AZ Striper fishing at Lake Pleasant. I wouldn't have one post on my FB in the last 5 years if it wasn't for the Boo Bar Poker run 2 years ago that someone uploaded a few videos to my page of that day. Regardless, I look at Facebook now and laugh and shake my head and think, what is the draw to this?! Facebook is so garbage I don't understand what the attraction is.

In 1950 if you wanted to change the dialogue internally in the united states by a foreign adversary you'd have to drop LEAFLETS. Remember propaganda leaflet drops in Europe and Vietnam? Now to sow discord internally inside the united states all you have to do is create a FACEBOOK account. Who knew that FREE SPEECH would protect NON US CITIZENS that are actively sowing discord domestically from a computer in Russia or China or wherever... Let's face it, Facebook is now a national security threat.

I believe most of you don't realize once you sign up to Zuckerstein's Facebook you can never cancel your membership, and can never remove anything you posted. Any person, any government body in US and everywhere else in the world can find you....they have you on file, available to the public, for life. Ever wonder why the real leaders in the world have never signed up ?

They all collect meta data now. It's not a conspiracy. Ever go somewhere and Google tells you that you were here 36 weeks ago? It's got to be hard to be a criminal/murderer these days...
