Friendster has erased my entire network of friends-of-friends. I still have my friends, but any time I try to see who my friends' friends are, it tells me they have none. This either makes me the most popular person in my little cadre, or that "scheduled maintenance" completely screwed the system over. BTW, did anyone else see that the "scheduled maintenance" was supposed to take place on "Wednesday, May 16"? Someone should've told them that May 16 won't be a Wednesday for another few years. Maybe that's why the system is so screwed up. I leave you now with a couple choice words from Lewis Black's HBO standup special that aired on Saturday night: "They shouldn't have put in that color-code system for Homeland Security, because then they have to explain what the colors mean. Simplify, simplify. The three levels should be named 'Jesus Christ,' 'Goddammit' and 'Fuck Me!'"
