Well said, Ed. He could be offering a solemn prayer on behalf of all of those who have been battling this pernicious social media virus all year.

For the rest of us, let us be thankful for time with loved ones, far away from the keyboard and the perils of self-absorption.

Oh, wait. It’s 4:30 on Wednesday and I’m posting on my blog. Yikes. Gotta run.

Where’d that family go again?

    I’m taking my first trip without a computer in as long as I can remember. Yeah, I’ll have my iPhone with me, but still. :)

    Detox efforts on the social media front may be less effective than drug rehab. We’ll see…

    Keep an eye out for me on Twitter. ;-)

    Have a great Thanksgiving!
