Well, they finnally got me. For those of you who did not know already, Facebook has been warning me for several months that they were going to kick me off Facebook because I didnt go to the school I said I did, since my school isnt even listed. To stick it to the man, I wrote a letter.
Dear Facebook,
You kicked me off yesterday because I did not get identified by a fellow student at the high school I said I attended, despite that I have been friends with someone who was already in that network. You have been threatening to kick me off at the end of the month, which was nearly six months ago, but it seems that "terminate conniving non-student" was at the bottom of your to-do list. Indeed, you are correct in assuming that I am not part of the network I chose, and let me tell you why I decided to commit this heinous crime.
I joined the high school network closest to me because the school I currently attend, Fideles Christian School, is not on your school list. Despite my and fellow students' attempts at entering our school name into your enormous bureaucracy of a website in hopes that we might get a network of our own, you have ignored us for more than six months. Since you have shattered our hopes of recognition, you have forced me and so many other unrepresented students to go into a life of crime, maliciously joining networks that we do not actually belong to.
Heinous as our crime is, I want to suggest a compromise: If I get enough people at my small school that are already on Facebook to sign a petition, you give us our own network. Its simple isnt it? Nothing that a multi-million dollar corporation cannot take care of.
But be warned, Facebook. If you continue to squash our rights as students, you will become something that all grassroots corporations fear: THE MAN. A company that ignores the voice of the people and kills our rights. Now you dont want to be the MAN do you?
Anyways, please take time out of your extremely busy schedules to consider my proposal, in the spirit of democracy.
Sincerely,
Jared Hutchins
Well, I guess we'll have to wait and see how that sits with them. In the meantime, it looks apparent that I will probably never be on Facebook again, so this blog site is my only solace for blogging. Now I am truly a rebel.
Viva la revolucion.

Wow. That deserves a song so full of angst, a protest breaks out every time you/we play it.
Vive la revolucion and Collez-l'à l'homme! (Stick it to the Man!)
Facebook just feels insignificant because you don't fit into one of their catagoris of education. Lame.
Viva La Vie Boheme!
(Long Live Bohemia!!)
Facebook is lame anyways.
I've decided that Blogspot kicks all other websites skinny, white rear ends.
