Anna I saw a program how thiefs get your credit card numbers and bank card numbers. These people get these little black looking little boxes and when people are look they slide them over where you put your credit in.Leave it for a day or so then they go back and get it hook it to the computer and wa-la everyone that slide there cards thru it they have your number and pins. So when you strart to slide your just look and se if a small looking box is extended on it. If it is dont slide your card.
Also use gel pens on your checks you can get some kind of liquid at a farm store they can erase the writing on it and fill it in and take to banks and cash it.
There was another saety tips but it slipped my mind.

love Facebook. I keep in touch with family and friends and from the drama people on my list I get free entertainment. I have learned so much from my friends posting interesting links and articles. I love the homesteading survival page and the news page and the local garden club page. The personal photos and the comedy stuff that are posted are nice and give me good laughs. I am not to worried about privacy. Nothing I post here is private. You search my username on the net, and you will find me all over the web on different forums and blogs. Nothing on the net is private. SO, I try not to post anything I don't want have to answer to down the road.
What I did give up was my addiction to my Blackberry phone. Whew that was rough. I couldn't go anywhere without that phone. I couldn't even put it down anymore. It emailed, it texted, it played games, it surfed the net, it Twittered, it Facebooked and it was constantly dinging and pinging with notices. That was way to much connectedness for me. I finally shut the phone down and purchased a standard NON Droid phone. It has been 3 weeks and yesterday I noticed that I no longer was afraid to walk away from the phone. I went hours without my phone on me. I had put it down somewhere and walked away. I didn't die. It took about 2 weeks to get over the bored and what do I do with my hands now feeling. It took about 1 week for the anxiety of missing something to wear off. Glad I did it.. but.. I miss the convenience of my Blackberry. |

I divorced facebook awhile ago and I don't miss it a bit. Would much rather spend an hour on the phone connecting with one old friend than an hour on the computer feeling like I'm stalking all my old friends. Glad to know there are some others out there who don't care for it either! |
