Never Underestimate the Power of Facebook

Today I enjoyed lunch with what is one of my oldest friends, Kate. Nothing out of the ordinary about having lunch with a friend, with the rare exception being that the last time we hung out was 23 years ago. Our paths first crossed when our moms had us in the same playgroup when we were toddlers growing up in Sarasota, FL. In 1986, I moved to Tampa, and of course lost touch. Ironically, Kate's family moved to the Dallas area a few years before my parents relocation to the Big D in the 90's. Thru the social networking power of Facebook and our mutual friend Andy, we have gotten back in touch. We met for lunch today since Kate is in town from Brazil visiting her family.

The point of this story: The power of Facebook should never be underestimated.
