It would appear, that only our mothers do not BLOG, all but the very youngest family members BLOG. Both our fathers passed away in the late 20th century, 2nd millennia. Aunts, Uncles, Nephews, Nieces, Cousins, Brothers and Sisters, all BLOG. That means, we have family members who are BLOGGING from Europe, Asia and Australia, as well as the USA, and not forgetting Canada.
*FAMILY* as in 2 expiring minds at psychedelic nirvana.
NO MATTER WHAT I DO OR TRY IT *face-book* WILL NOT ACCEPT MY PASSWORD. I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY? WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT *face-book* HAS AN EVEN WORSE TECHNICAL SUPPORT, COSTUMER SERVICE, OR EVEN COMPLAINTS DEPARTMENT; THAN *micro-soft* I NEVER-EVER WOULD HAVE BELIEVED SUCH A THING POSSIBLE!

I've been getting lots of spam from someone masquerading as Facebook, telling me that they have a new Login scheme and I should click their link to go to it. Maybe needles got hooked into that?
And needles: No need to shout at us. We can hear you.
We were going to open up two face-book accounts, one for himself and one for herself. BUT, to our horror we found out that you must a mobile phone number in order to do so. We did not know this! NO independent and separate mobile phone number, no face-book account. You can not share the same mobile phone number for different face-book accounts. Now as we have never-ever own any kind of mobile phone or cell phone, then we guess we will never-ever be able to open up a face-book account. We say never-ever, because we have neither the need of desire to own either a mobile phone or cell phone.

No, you must have a mobile phone if you want Facebook to send updates TO YOUR PHONE.
If you don't want that, or don't have a mobile, just skip that part. It's not required and I don't understand why you'd jump to that conclusion. I didn't give FB any personal info I didn't want to when I set it up.
You're getting all hot and bothered over something that isn't true. -- -- Lymaree

Me too, John. My ISP has notified me several times that it has "quarantined" messages _allegedly_ from Facebook that contained nasty viruses.the most recent one was this a.m. I'm ultra cautious to never open anything like this even if it makes it to the IN box.
Facebook does not send unsolicited emails like these -- but the baddies do. Evidently the bogus message had this subject line: "Subject: Facebook Password Reset Confirmation. Customer Message" and the ISP said it contained a nasty virus called CMU-10088-20091106.

Well, that explains why no one answers when I call. I thought I was being snubbed.

My DW and I both have separate accounts, and no phones were harmed in the creation of them... --

*IF* is true what your are trying to tell us about not needing any kind or type phone to set up a face-book account we should have one up and running by Thanksgiving if not Christmas, or Hogmany at the very latest!

BUT, and there always is a BUT, we are still having problems informing face-book that we do not have any kind of mobile/cell phone, nor do we wish to have any kind of face-book updates text messaged to us via any kind of cell/mobile phone. The response from face-book is still the same, NO wireless phone NO face-book account.

Something else must be going on. Perhaps you signed up incorrectly in the first place? The phone service is only an option you can choose, it's not required.

But they could just as easily (and have) sent these viri (?) to your computer. I also don't open anything I don't recognize, Which is why--I'm sure--I have not heard from my high school boyfriend yet.

Ha, reminds me of the other day when I went to MSN.com to find out where I could start a web page since I use (expletive deleted) Qwest for DSL and you're automatically connecets to MSN for your ISP. Now, since I use Linux and only Linux, they wanted me to download some .exe file as they scaned my disk, which they can't do and assumed I had this and that virus. I got out of there in a hurry.
