Give up Facebook? Ummm...NO!

Lent begins tomorrow...and instead of giving up potato chips, beer or dessert for Lent, how about Facebook?

There are people who are considering swearing off the social networking site ... and they aren't just teenagers or college students.

Lent is a 40-day liturgical season leading up to Easter where some Christians recognize the time Jesus spent resisting temptation from Satan, fasting and wandering the desert by giving up something important to them.

College students who had given Facebook up for Lent in the past found it to be a brutal, but valuable exercise.

I for one will not be giving up my Facebook habit. I can't imagine not updating my status about 10 times a day...or checking in to see what others have posted. An obsession you say? Yes...yes quite possibly.

If you decide to give it up...just remember that I'll be posting some very interesting and entertaining stuff over the next 40 days...and you'll miss all of it. So give up chocolate or beer...OK, maybe not beer...but certainly not Facebook...if you do, who's wall will I read each day?
