When I first heard about Karin's untreated ankle, I felt like she must be in some remote, uncivilized part of the world, then, after hearing all about California public health care, I realized I was right.
As for MySpace, I'm on it mainly for fun and keeping in touch with certain friends/family who don't tend to send regular email, but send MySpace messages all the time.
I DO have links to my photography site several places, and I'm very happy when photog friends end up becoming myspace friends, too (hint, hint) - they write some of the best blogs!
