Facebook Rant to my friend Wilson

Hi,
I'm on a rant about Facebook photos and videos. Here is my comment about the "Elephant" video that you just sent to me on Facebook which I looked at because I received an g-mail telling me that Wilson sent me a video. I thought it might be a thoughtful communication from you so I immediately looked at it. But....

(My Facebook Comment) "Ronald Walcott This is what drives me crazy with Face book. I get a shared video from my friend Wilson, but I have no idea why he sent it, or how he feels about it. It becomes like so many Facebook communications, a communication without heart or soul."
 
Your son does the same thing most of the time. He sends a photo of some people who are unidentified with him included often with a goofy expression.
 
And it seems most people on Facebook do the same thing.  I get photos of people, animals, posters, groups, buildings, etc. and I have no idea who, what, or where they are and why the person bothers to send it out to the world.

 
Yes, I know it's the style of the SELFE. I was at the beach today and I saw so many people taking selfes and making a goofy expression. I find the whole trend very tiresome.
 
I have not heard from you in ages.  I seldom waist my time with Facebook for the reasons cited above so a Facebook "fart" from you does not count.
 
Why don't you send me an email if you feel like it and tell a story about your life.

 
By the way, you son come to California (he may still be here) but didn't find the time to come by, invite me to see him, or AT LEAST, make a short telephone call to say, "Hi, how are you?." What does this tell me?  I can only conclude that I am an unimportant person in his life.
 
I know you are all into the 7th Day Adv. thing, but people who are not are still part of the human race.
Ron
