Facebook is an amazing phenomenon.  My face has been booked there for less than a year, but I’ve already discerned the secret of this diabolical creation.  Facebook is touted as the place to “reconnect with old friends, blah, blah, blah, blah. . . . “  Whatever.

I’m angry!  Facebook is so overtly gender-biased, I cannot believe more people aren’t rioting!  There should be an angry mob somewhere, right now, hurriedly snatching pitchforks and torches, yelling unintelligibly as they storm towards a locked castle.  The creators of Facebook have obviously tampered with the “photo” feature.  It must be some sort of Photoshop filter.

I’ve reconnected with several faces from my past, and I’ve noticed the same thing.  The young ladies I used to know in HS and College are now beautiful, elegant ladies.  They look great!!  The young dudes that I used to know way back when . . . Well . . . . They all tend to look . . . .

Like me.

Birthdays aren’t kind to us all.

For years now, I’ve been firmly convinced:  “Tall, Dark, and Handsome” is going by the wayside.  The beautiful, elegant ladies of today, I know, are much more smitten with “Bald, Pasty, Pudgy.”  Granted, I haven’t seen any real evidence of my theory, but I know within my overweight heart that it’s true.

For those of you unconvinced, let me offer proof!  I recently created some photos of a guy, celebrating his birthday, and he gladly took off his shirt.  Yeah–he’s got some pudge, but he knows there’s no shame there.  He inspired me.  True–he’s not exactly bald [especially compared to some of us], and he’s not that pasty, but he’s proud of the pudge.  He’s a leader among men.  Click the video link below to see about 30 seconds of this handsome fellow.

By the way . . . If I haven’t seen you there, find me on www.facebook.com.  Search for Bill Ramsey.
