I just got friended by Nashville’s ABC affiliate, WKRN, who, according to “her” profile, is a 54-year-old female. (I get the 54-year-old-part — the station’s 54th anniversary was earlier this week. But I didn’t know TV stations are feminine — like aircraft carriers, perhaps?) Hint to WKRN: MySpace is so 2005. Aren’t you supposed to be setting up an island on Second Life if you want to be “edgy.” (By the way, on SL my user name is Rexhamm Ock.)
