This is a way of making myself write something coherent and grammatically correct almost every day. I'm opinionated and need an outlet. I'm also prone to flights of fancy. Thanks for stopping by. |
| I check out Facebook a few times a week. I don't have that many people on there--some from church, my cousins, some distant relatives, and two TV sites. I get dozens of unsolicited ads every day. If I look at anything on the internet, it automatically goes to Facebook to haunt me. There are no secrets. "They" know everything we research, every question we ask, and connect us to merchants and tricksters. I look for recipes to use ingredients I have on hand, so all the sites I visit from a search, go to Facebook with ads or posts. I once checked out Ellen Degeneres wrinkle cream ad, and now am daily faced with ads from various companies for miracle wrinkle creams. I don't know enough to block them or if it's possible. I won't look at anything that requires me to register first. But I still get lots of junk mail as well as the Facebook stuff. I feel like we have no privacy. My dad does the grocery shopping, and the store knows his habits. He gets coupons for the same things in the mail all the time. He feels obligated to use the coupons. I tell him they're making a profit on things that are unhealthy for him. I finally have refused to touch the doughnuts that he brings home--the same kind all the time. He finally stopped after throwing out stale ones. Even our shopping is electronically monitored. Big brother is everywhere, especially if a dime can be made by somebody. |
