Have you used Facebook? If not, you should! You can find a link to my facebook on the right hand side of this webpage. If you are a Facebook user, have you ever ventured to view the statistics compiled by Pulse. These are stats brought together by the usage and responses from those using facebook. If you haven’t looked at it, you can find some intriguing and sometimes funny truths and trends. If you use facebook, but haven’t browsed Pulse, be sure you go! While displaying all these compiled numbers, Pulse also shows a “Did You Know?” column with statements that may be intriguing to you and I as the reader. Of course these are only as accurate as the facebook user makes themself to be. But truthfully the last statement made me laugh. Maybe it should be making me cry…


As I was reading through some of the results offered up by Pulse, I noticed that Cornerstone as a whole was typically one off with favorite shows, books, movies, etc. For example - if the Number One Favorite Person in the World (NOFPW) to the entire facebook community were Jeff Sickles, then Pulse would report NOFPW as Jeff Sickles. However, Cornerstone would be one off and report Jeff Sickles as NTFPW. NOFPW would be replaced with something like…God. This is what I found. Well, Cornerstone listed the number one book as…any guesses? The B-I-B-L-E. Well, suffice to say, one should expect that this Great Book would also be the number one read? Right? Am I right here? Well, this is why the statistic to the left made me laugh so hard! Pulse reports back with the Bible as the number one book, yet it also reports that 1.2% of Cornerstone reads the Bible. I found this most entertaining - then again, I guess it doesn’t take much sometimes.

This weekend passed by most quickly resulting in fairly low productivity. I did however enjoy a riveting game of Monopoly with a few friends who ultimately had to give me the Monopoly award at the end of our 3.5 hours of solid game time. I will now have to discover how I can profit $11,000+ in just several hours in non-monopoly money. I figure if I can do it on the gameboard, I am halfway through the problem.
