Bonding with family is impossible without food in an Italian family! Lots of food, laughter, hugging and talking is all part of every holiday for my family! Christmas Eve is always our big night of celebration too, yet another very Italian tradition. It sounds like your family adds the frog legs to the traditional Italian feast of the seven fishes ... hopefully in place of the baccala!!

]]> Comment on Facebook: Blessing or Curse? by Jeffrey Romagni http://journals.utoledo.edu/jeff/2009/11/05/facebook-blessing-or-curse/comment-page-1/#comment-62 Jeffrey Romagni Mon, 09 Nov 2009 15:20:42 +0000 http://journals.utoledo.edu/jeff/?p=150#comment-62 Thanks for all the input! I think this is one of those never-ending topics of our time. Mindy- The whole "big brother" concept is one that scares many people. Personal sites like FB can give employees the few minutes of break that they need after a long and tedious session at the computer. However, like every other personal privilege, it can be a slippery slope. Personally, I think the better the relationship between boss/worker, the less "big brother" action is necessary! Lindsey- Thanks for the comment. Where are you originally from? 2,400 miles puts my 120 miles to shame! hahaha Felicia- Thanks for the support! Did you petition for a "dislike" button?

I check my Facebook at least twice a day.. but I am also going to school in Toledo (obviously), which means that I am 2,400 miles away from home. So having a connection with my friends from back home means a lot. It is kind of ridiculous the fights people have over one persons "status" though. I once saw four really close friends fighting and "yelling" at each other over another friends status because they wrote something about politics, which of course, set into motion everyone thinking that they had to defend their opinion. I completely agree with you, Facebook can be a curse when you don't appreciate the people in it as a blessing. - lindseyd This is a really interesting article.

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 23:24:18 +0000 http://journals.utoledo.edu/jeff/?p=150#comment-59 I agree with you--facebook is a great social networking site and a site to keep in touch with loved ones and friends. I think it can be addicting to some and tedious to others. I check my facebook everyday and do have people I keep up with. I do think there is some scrutiny of FB being used while at work. I hear a rumor that they are tracking employee internet use now at the UTMC campus. I have very mixed feelings on this. I think if people are being responsible and doing their jobs and they have a free minute to check their email or FB--then what is the harm?? Our society is a technological one and most things done in the hospital/university are linked somehow to computers. How is tracking people going to help?? How is computer use time any different from the person who reads a book, works on their class homework, or text messages on the cell??

We will need to encourage all organizations to be present and fill out the UT games. Especially since the upcoming game will be on ESPN!
