Will You Be My Friend? Please, I'm Begging You.

Last Friday at 6:07 pm, I received this email from Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers.

Check out my photos on Facebook

Hi Gigowiz@(domain name removed),

I set up a Facebook profile where I can post my pictures, videos and events and I want to add you as a friend so you can see it. First, you need to join Facebook! Once you join, you can also create your own profile.

----------
As a subscriber to my e-newsletter list, I would also like to connect with you on Facebook.

Thanks,
Cathy


And then at 6:53 pm I received a follow-up email.

Check out my photos on Facebook

Hi Gigowiz@(domain name removed),

I invited you to join Facebook a while back and wanted to remind you that once you join, we'll be able to connect online, share photos, organize groups and events, and more.

Thanks,
Cathy


It's official. "A while back" is exactly 46 minutes.

I received the same two emails in the identical time frame. As someone who tried Facebook for a short period a while back and dropped it as a bit of a time waster, I will not be taking Cathy up on her offer.

I guess she will need to be satisfied with my periodic emails providing my unfiltered opinion on things.
