Are Facebook Photos Fair Game For Insurance Companies?
I just came across a story about a woman in Canada who lost insurance benefits because of a photo posted on Facebook.

Many cats go crrrazy for fronds of all time so she took a tiny, retractable tape measure and taped a few bright feathers to the end.
Stripper at a Baby Shower: Ga Ga or Gag?
It seems everyone is going for broke when it comes to throwing the most original baby shower for their expectant friends. Baby shaped cakes, Gucci crib shoes and champagne fountains are just a few eccentric touches that puzzle me but the one that shocks me most? Strippers.

Are You Facebook Friends With Your Exes?
An essay in this week's New York Times hit close to home. The author, mourning the breakup of a long-term relationship, used Facebook to keep up with what his ex was doing.
