I have a strict policy of not friending people that I've never met (despite friend requests from numerous handles such as "SuzyBreyer CreamCheese".)<br /><br />With the addition of the grouping options for friends, I can choose to hide from the model horse world if I'm tired of friends' griping. Conversely, I can post my flea-market finds to only my model horse pals, without annoying the rest of my friends. <br /><br />While there are certainly pages on FB that can quickly grow tiresome, I can choose to engage as much or as little as I can socially tolerate in one day.<br /><br />KWAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7371380495065351450.post-69149534447638479302012-09-05T10:54:51.794-04:002012-09-05T10:54:51.794-04:00I haven't spent one thin dime with Stone in ye...I haven't spent one thin dime with Stone in years, ever since the "Matinee Idol" came out at Jam. I had pre-ordered 2 of them, and they were a completely different color than advertised. I remember asking Sheryl Leasure about them, and she said the same thing - they weren't the color she'd ordered. <br /><br />Later, I met Mr. Stone at the hotel when he drifted into our room during room sales. He spent the entire time telling us what was wrong with all our Breyers and why we should've only bought from him. I was less than impressed.<br /><br />Then there was the time at a Texas show where he threw a tantrum when nobody would bid on his overpriced auction "donations." <br /><br />I sold my Matinee Idols. I now have only 1 Stone in my collection, a QH weanling I got from Sheryl at Jam.<br /><br />Oh, and I'm on Facebook, and while I agree that it makes (some) people dumb, the majority are pretty normal. Then again, the only model horse-related news I subscribe to on Facebook is the Breyer one. bubbasmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13633128491532897125noreply@blogger.com
