The Story Behind The Facebook Divorce

John Nemec — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 08:00:50 +0000

The other day Wife was watching TV while I was mindlessly surfing around on the interwebs when a thought popped into my head, 'Why don't we change our Facebook statuses to not married?'. Wife and I laughed about this for a while talking about how funny it would be to have it post on everyone's page, 'John and Wife are no longer married'.

Facebook Divorce Announcement

For the past week people have been sending me Facebook Messages, Wall Posts and text messages asking me why I changed my status from Married to It's Complicated and then again to Single. The following is my official announcement, since it's a bit too long for the 420-character limit given by Facebook.

One of the most uncomfortable things for me is when I should know someone but don't. What makes it even worse is when they know me. This has happened quite a few times in my life, and it never gets any easier.

Maybe we can learn something from our animal cousins and let the worthless die off. My Plinky answer to the question "The world would be a better place if we could just..."

So for the past few months I've been swamped with work. The main project I've been working on was B. Davis & Company, a e-commerce website created in Drupal using Ubercart. B. Davis & Company is a store that sells fine items including table settings and light fixtures.

WordPress Archives Redirecting to Home Page

John Nemec — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 21:14:34 +0000

For months now my Archives (located on the right) have been redirecting to the Home Page of JohnNemec.com and I never could figure out why. It really wasn't a big deal to me at the time, but just today I wanted to look at some old article I'd written and couldn't get to them easily. With the fire lit I decided to solve this problem once and for all. So I went to Google.

Take a piece of fried chicken breast, slap some bacon on it, then some cheese, some special sauces and top it with another fried chicken breast, wrap it nicely in a thin piece of paper and you have the new KFC Double Down Sandwich. I tried one of these for lunch the other day and [...]

The Smores finally did it. They got married. Not that it was a spur-of-the-moment thing, but they did it none-the-less. And it was a beautiful ceremony on a perfect day with some great people. All in all, it was a great wedding, and I HATE weddings, but I had a good time. On Saturday, April [...]
