Just a warning to those of you who use Facebook and have not set your posts to private - friends only.

A new site 'Openbook' has been set up. START PRINTPAGEMultimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to or END PRINTPAGE

Here you can search for anything eg, I hate my boss, I cheated on my wife etc etc and read all sorts of posts that surely are not meant for public viewing.


Yikes!   :o 

There is no expectation of privacy on the Internet.

It's probably just me, but why in the world would anyone post this, much less get a kick out of reading it?   

Pretty much the same people who read the Enquirer, the Tattler, etc. That stuff sells!

I took it different. I think she was just trying to let the many people who are on here that use facebook (and there are many) to be aware there is a webpage out there that has the ability to do this.

I will immediately start looking up Guiseppi and Linda and see what you guys have been up to. ;)

thats what i got out of it. people post alot of very personal stuff on there.

i tried to re-post this link on facebook and it seems to be blocked.

Yes, this was only meant as a warning. I don't get any pleasure from reading other people's messages - I realise there is no privacy online - but wasn't aware people were compiling messages!  I found that a bit confronting. 

Having said that I did do a search for 'clusterheadaches' and found a few people floundering.  I sent messages to those people to try 02.  I bet they were surprised to find a that their messages had been read by someone in Australia!

I understand what you're saying Jimi.  but my comment:

   had little to do with Kate in Oz.  Rather I don't understand WHY anyone would be so stupid to post that they hate their boss, are having an affair, etc.  and then post it to some web-site. I also do not understand anyone who would want to read about it.   >:(

Then it was probably the sixties.

Remember now, this is Linda that we are talking about, so it COULD be in the 50's. 8-)

Ouch, boys.....better watch it. :)

Brian, good to see some posts....been drinkin' all the beer around here by myself.  :)

Help, help, help....ok, forget it. 8-)

Ironing in high heels out in the yard. Wow. Made me think of my favorite picture of Gramma.

Look at the lawnmower. I saw that in the American History Museum in DC a couple of weeks ago. At least it was very similiar.

That had to be staged. Surely she wasn't mowing in high heels and a dress.

I've been having fun at flickr looking a retro stuff. Most of it is hilarious and the thing is that I remember almost all of it. It brings back a lot of memories.

Never know with my Gramma. In those days women didn't wear pants, and my grampa, well he wasn't so reliable (generally was too liquored up to care). So, she just might have been the one mowing!

Wait  . . . doesn't everyone mow in high heels and a dress??? :-?

Just in California it would appear.

I'm still on trying to figure out where that woman is going to plug in that iron.  On a beach.  START PRINTPAGEMultimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to or END PRINTPAGESTART PRINTPAGEMultimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to or END PRINTPAGE
