Carol:
I'm one of those people who used to mock Facebook. Mock,
mock, mock. I referred to it as Fakebook, but...no more. The friends I've met
via Facebook have been genuine and genuinely delightful...well beyond any
expectations.
Today I had the pleasure of sharing plates of dim sum with
my long time Facebook friend Hugh
Maverick Haller. He lives his life on one coast, I'm planted on another.
But we both felt the same closeness in person that we've felt here online. We
already knew one another well. That's a rare thing. What a joy to share a meal
with someone who is the same wonderful critter that is present and presented in
posts and writing.
Hugh is the real deal. I can't remember when I've felt more
at home in someone's company. One helluva guy. Cheers to my new old friend.
Maverick:
Many of my FB friends know Carol, AKA CaRoll. You probably
think that she is interesting in her posts, eclectic in her approach, enviable
in her prolific stream of creative storytelling, wise in her understanding of
the human condition regardless of how stellar or damaged that may be,
optimistic and positive in her vibe, and unusually attractive inside and out.
Well, I just finished having lunch with the lady and I can tell you…you’re
right. Carol is all of those things and more. One of my favorite people on the
planet. Thanks Carol, loved the Dim Sum, but yes, I guess I would pass on the
chicken feet next time.
