The Big Damn Potpourri O’ Good Stuff. 8220;What you want, baby, I got it…” (Respect, Otis Redding). I’m not bragging here (okay, maybe just a little)…. 8230; but I’ve been maxed out with “friends” on Facebook for years now. That’s because ol’ Zuckerberg sets a limit of 5,000 of your closest BFFs for your personal page, for the very simple reason that…. 8230; well, okay, there isn’t any good reason for it. But FB is Zuck’s playground, and we’re just hogging the swing set on it. So, to keep things even, I&...
