As a Security Professional I think its foolish not to have FB or Linkedin

My information is out there, what are they going to steal? I don't post anything that I wouldn't want my boss to see, nor my mother (who is on FB), and I use my po box for selling stuff, and the city as my home (yes, I am outed by my wife many times by her using the city) but you can only be so secure, then you are being paranoid.

I simply live with the fear and deal with it ensure I have privacy settings, etc.

Although they use personal info, its all out there anyway - you just have to limit what you put out there?

Y'all sound - old - not secure

Posting your "selfies" on your FB page will not make you young again,....just "trendy"!

Don't ever underestimate the old people. They didn't get to be old by being stupid, and they don't have much to lose. Kinda like R.E.D. (retired extremely dangerous)

Sorry, not a selfie guy. I just am a long way from family, and it is a good way to keep in contact.

My wife says we are not old, my back says otherwise

And my brother is a security professional and feels like John does, so he's in good company I just live dangerously

I have family in MN (I'm in CA), Germany, Italy, and Croatia. Skype works great (when we want to see each other), or Viber for phone calls.

As far as FB is involved I basically agree with Edward, I've got a FB account but I've never posted anything that I wouldn't want my boss to see nor my mother, although I don't have a boss and my mother died 6 years ago.
I never put much info about myself, and I'm very careful before I put a "like" on anything, but apart from that I think FB is a nice way to keep yourself in touch with ex colleagues and with various groups with common interests like photography, tourism, tactical shooting, companies like Wilson Combat, or tv programs like Law & Order...

Okay... this is supposed to be a photo thread, so lets get back on my "off topic" and post some photos of the aberrant parkers you have encountered.

Sorry I don't have any photos to share. But I know a few of you guys here have motorcycles. about 10 or so years ago I was parked in a spot at the Mall and from inside the store I saw a Tour bus pull up with appeared to be a group of people that were from another country. They gathered nearby in close proximity of my bike and then a few of them started to remove their coats and drape them over the seat and tank of my bike as some of them headed over to a bathroom nearby. I immediately went over to my bike said nothing and removed their coats to the asphalt. A couple people with an angry bewildered look picked their coats up, but a couple coats remained on the ground as the owners were still in the bathroom. The coats got redecorated by Metzler as I left.
