REMINDER: Proceed With Caution in Social Networking!

The following was posted by a friend on Facebook. I’m reposting w/permission as I feel this is a very important message that reminds us to be vigilant:

——————————————–

Let’s face it, social networking sites have enabled people coming together like never before. I have met many wonderful people. I am appreciative of all the people who have come my way. I have struck up friendship with many fascinating people. I look at each opportunity to get to know each person as an opportunity to broaden my horizons.

I am an optimistic person and I know that I am often more trusting than I should be with people. On a social network for bikers I became acquainted with this guy in Texas. LET ME STRESS THAT I MAKE NO BONES ABOUT BEING MARRIED AND NOT LOOKING FOR ANYTHING BUT FRIENDSHIP. I have not met him in person and really have little desire to go out of my way to meet him, unless I would be in Texas for a reason.

He found me on Myspace and I thought including him in my friend’s list was innocent enough. He was going through a divorce. He said was depressed and distraught. He send me messages he was thinking about ending his life. I felt sorry for him. After a while of communicating with him a few days he shared his email with me and asked me to email him so he “could just talk.” When I developed a Facebook profile he found me there. I thought OK, that still seemed innocent enough.

We talked about innocent stuff. He is a biker also. I mentioned to him one time about dropping my bike. The conversation continued off and on. One time I explained that I was cautious about riding on gravel His reply caught me off guard. He said, “Don’t ride on gravel unless I was there with you.” I immediately thought “What? There with me? What? He is in Texas. I am in Connecticut. I am married!”

That is when I backed off. I didn’t talk with him about it, I didn’t really talk with him about anything after that.

Whenever I signed on to Myspace or Facebook or the biker social network, he was there. I would try to get me into chat. Finally, I had enough. I had explained to my husband all along what was happening. I am grateful I never shared a lot of contact information with him. I have no idea what the motivation is of this guy. It could be purely innocent. I don’t know and I don’t care. I have blocked him everywhere as of this morning, Myspace, Facebook, the biker social network, and email.

His intentions may be innocent, I don’t know. However, I have no desire to find out at this point. I discussed what has happened with my husband and he is supporting my actions 100%.

Remember, if it smells like fish, it usually is fish.

We’re In The Harley-Davidson Mosaic!

Harley-Davidson Mosiac If you hadn’t heard, Harley-Davidson did something unique for their 2010 catalog.

Check out the Harley-Davidson 2010 Mosiac at http://www.h-d-mosaic.com/.

Collecting thousands of photos from around the world, they created a cover that is a mosaic symbolizing the passion and enthusiasm of the community that has fueled Harley-Davidson for more than 105 years.

My girlfriend Lynn & I are part of the 2010 mosiac. You can find our pictures by using the following codes: karl1, karl2, karl3, karl4, & karl6.

The best part of this mosaic is that it showcases the people who ride Harley-Davidson motorcycles – enthusiasts, riders, their bikes, tattoos or experiences such as rallies, rides or concerts. The goal of the 2010 Motorcycle Catalog Mosaic speaks to the fact that no matter what your background or where you’re from, with Harley-Davidson, you’re part of something bigger…the Harley-Davidson family.

This is my Year of Jez ride.

Some of you may remember that a delightful young lady I had the pleasure of knowing had passed away in 2007: http://www.hogbiker.com/2007/09/17/we-will-never-forget-you-jezreel/83.

As I had my accident in 2008, I was not able to participate in Live Ride for MDA that year (I did raise funds though). That year the ride was dedicated in her honor which was both wonderful, touching, and saddening all at the same time.

So since I did not get to ride in her honor last year, this will be my year for her.

I have my 2008 shirt that proudly displays “The Year of Jez” and will wear it knowing that it’s wonderful children like her that we ride to find a cure for so that one day NO CHILD will be affected by these deadly diseases.

If you want to know more about Live ride, visit http://www.mdaliveride.com. If you’d like to help me in my goal of raising funds for the cause visit https://www.joinmda.org/lr09/twotone (you can even donate after the ride).
