Why were the Ojinnakas fighting? Glad you asked. Mrs. Ojinnaka got a wee bit ticked off that Mr. Ojinnaka was corresponding/flirting with a Ms.-Not-Ojinnaka on Facebook.

Sounds like those two crazy kids are going to be together forever.

I know the two of you are Facebook fiends. What do you think of the latest Facebook-will-ruin-the-world incident? And have either of your spouses ever come at you with a Bic ballpoint after reading something on your wall?

I think Ojinnaka either needs to get off Facebook or move to a rancher with no steps. Actually, I'm sure this is a big misunderstanding. She was merely asking him for his autograph and, suffering from post-football snap-out syndrome (PFSOS), he thought she was a defensive tackle and threw a block. Unfortunately, it was near the second-floor landing, etc., etc. You can see how these things happen.

I'm not so worried about Facebook taking over the world as I am Twitter. I'm new to the Twitter party, and it's highly addictive and often veers into TMI territory. It's got disastrous possibilities. Just ask John Calipari. He's already gotten into trouble with Twitter, posting stuff about a recruit, and has used Twitter to defend his daughter's Facebook postings. Can't keep up? Me neither.

I wonder whether the Facebook defense will hold up in court when Ashley finally snaps and staples one of our heads to something. I'd like the Senate to ask Sonia Sotomayor where she stands on that.

I'm a peacekeeper, John, or didn't you know?

Peacekeeper? Sorry, we're unfamiliar with that word here at Talkin' HQ.

That is true. You and Eddie Jordan bumped my little piece about Twitter out of yesterday's paper. Thanks. But that's true. Wanna be @dmac5? That's all you, Ford. You can tweet about overtime rules. That'd be fun.
