Ah the magic of Myspace.
I finally found an old friend that I lost touch with two years ago. She moved to California, and I missed her terribly. After exhausting all my other efforts, I happened to search MySpace for her, and lo and behold, she turned up. And, as fate would have it, she is in Buffalo for a week.
See, that’s how Myspace will continue to thrive, even with this bull-oney of the new Murdoch-owned marketing vehicle it has become: it keeps connections with friends going. People change e-mail addresses, change hometowns, change whatever, but if there’s one thing people of my generation check in on at least every-so-often, it’s Myspace.
I’m going to meet her in a couple minutes. I throw up a shot or two of the happy reunion if it’s worth it.
UPDATE: Here’s a pic of me and my old friend, Gratchen (yes, with an A). She’s pretty awesome, and moving to Sacremento as we speak. She’s a classic, one of a kind friend.
So where are these pictures, tough guy?
