Who is Watching?



Today I was navigating around my Facebook page (as it keeps changing), when I came upon a invite to join a Facebook group: Things you didn't know about Facebook. So I went there and read the list and have to admit it was a little unsettling. We all know we are being watched by Big Brother and basically nothing is really private anymore. But who else is watching and just how much access do they have to all this information that we are putting out there? Well it turns out it could be a lot.

For example beware of all these applications that we all have gotten attached to. When was the last time you checked your privacy settings? Is everything set for anyone to search or access your profile? On your applications there is tab: granted additional permissions, go there and unchecked that box. I don't remember granting anyone all of this access to my personal information, even when I AM NOT USING THE APPLICATION! There is lots of sharing of information behind the scene, that most of us will never know about. I'm just not ready to throw all of my caution to the wind and would advise the same to my all friends.

It is such a catch 22 situation for persons like myself, who publish for living and need this median for marketing. I enjoy sharing the fun that I do and meeting my fans, but my actual friends on FB is a limited group of people. Everyone can be a fan or acquaintance, but not everyone can be a personal friend. That would require more time then there is in a day, which I don't have. But I still send love to all, and extra to those that really need it!

So in ending, to all of those , watching, following, being followed and etc. I have only one thing to say: HAPPY ST. PATRICKS DAY!

Facebook & Twitter


Bibi is turning into a techno geek...lol! You can now follow me on Twitter...Bibicomic and on Facebook under Bibi Andrade!
How fabulous!
I was suppose to start blogging again, but I have been so busy creating, there hasn't been much time to blah, blah! Just know that I am still here on sunny Miami Beach, where there has been a cool breeze going on for 3 months straight...amazing! I have not had to turn on the air conditioner since early December. I didn't know how to react when I saw how low my electric bill was.

There is just so much to do and not enough time (because I need my sleep) in a day. And by the way I really dislike daylight savings time. It has disrupted my working routine. I like getting up early in the morning at dawn with sun rising a little after 6 AM. I like the morning light. It's gives me my daily vitamin D and my brain works well. During daylight saving time, my groove gets a late start and I feel out of sync. I guess I have to get over it!

Till next time!

2009 & time to start blogging again!

It's hard to believe but the month of January is almost finished and I don't know where it went. Well okay, I spent 2 1/2 weeks of it sick. Of course the most exciting thing this month was the inauguration of President Barack Obama! I'm currently working on a Bibi comic collectors Inauguration edition! Very exciting stuff! The Bibicomic strip is taking off and will start uploading a weekly strip.

I just want to take the time to pray for my friends & family, who are losing their jobs at an incredible rate. Hang in there everyone!

USA MEN'S BASKETBALL WIN GOLD AGAINST SPAIN!




It must feel really nice to win after what happened in Athens! Congrats to the USA team for hanging in there. It actually was a tough game. Spain did not back down for moment. They were within 2 points in the 4Th quarter, but D. Wade put in a 3 pointer in the last 2 minutes, that put the boys over the top. GREAT GAME! Congrats to Spain for the Silver also!

Well I'm off the to closing ceremonies and all the after parties! Will tell you about all the fun after! And by the way congrats to all the Olympic athletes. You have provided us with memorable games, Thank You!

Shawn Johnson Finally Won Gold Last Night!






Good Morning from Beijing, where it is Wednesday August 20th, but evening Miami time. So you haven't seen it yet, but I don't care. Shawn Johnson finally won a gold medal on the balance-beam.

In some of the strangest gymnastic scoring, they finally didn't have a choice..she was the best and there was no stealing this one. Nastia took the Silver medal. Yeah!

I'm finally done with some of the events until this Friday and time to party in Beijing. We have been to a few clubs & bars while here. I loved the Lan Club, Suzie Wong & China Doll. We had a few American friends join us!

Next I'm going to show you some sights & sounds of Beijing. Also what we've been eating and the shopping is really something else. Everything is about bargaining here. You are suppose to end up at about 50% of whatever their offer is. Your suppose to say "No No" too expensive and walk away so that they come & chase after you. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't...lol! There are no "real antiques" in the market place, but still nice things for gifts and around the house.

Lili & I want to take a day trip to Lijiang, which has been declared an old historic city. It's like time stopped there in China. We have so much to share with you! We will return later with more pictures & information!

Giam Pa (I hope I spelled that right)

We Are Back Today!

We are uploading Bibi & Lili's adventures now. So sorry for the delay!

WHAT A RACE! PHELPS DOES IT AGAIN!





I don't know how he did it, but he managed to just reach out and touch the wall 1/100th of a second before the other guy. The water cube erupted with screams of jubilation!
Wow! Lili & I are just amazed!

This Is Turning Out To Be A Great Olympics!





Hello Bibites! I hope all of you are enjoying the Olympics as much as we are! Of course this is not just about USA, but I have to tell you this morning in Beijing (their time), was fantastic for the USA! Gold & Bronze for Nastia Liukin & Shawn Johnson, the first ever in woman's all around gymnastics. They nailed their routines. I'm personally having issues with the judging...it is starting to remind me of that ice skating judging scandal, some years ago. Does anyone remember that....hummmm?

And boy wonder? Well what can we say...Go PHELPS! Congrats also to Ryan Lochte (from Florida..Yeah)for his first individual gold. Let me not forget the golden girls of beach volleyball May-Treanor & Walsh. They finally had some serious competition from Belgium (that one girl was really big), but came from behind and still have not lost a match yet. What is it now 104...is that games or matches..I can't keep track.

Well it's time to cover other sports this weekend and finally Bibi & Lili have checked in and submitted some really fun stuff. They said they were really busy (Lili confessed...exhausted). Yeah right, excuses, excuses! Their fans have been waiting..okay worth the wait. Well this guest blogger is turning the blog back over to the girls.

Check out Bibi at Tianamen Square! Some people have all the luck!

Where Are Bibi & Lili In Beijing?

We are looking for those two woman...has anyone seen them? By the way the China won the gold in woman's gymnastics and USA took the Silver, and I'm excited for them, but...Bibi & Lili send us adventures!!!!

The Man of The Hour...Michael Phelps!

It's official! He is the all time Gold wining medalist in Olympic history! Another 2 gold medals this morning in Beijing. That's five this Olympics if your keeping count.

Bibi & Lili are at the woman's final team gymnastics and just text that the USA woman fell apart on the last 2 rotations. They are in 2nd place right now. China will really have to lose it for USA to get the gold.

Keep you posted!

Congrats To The Chinese Men's Gymnastic Team!

It looked scary for a moment, but there was little doubt that they would pull out a gold medal. The big surprise of course was the USA men's team stepped up and got the bronze medal! For a first time team, they were really good and very motivated. They slipped a little in the end, moving from Silver to Bronze, but I'm sure they are not complaining today...lol!

By the way Bibi & Lili have posted so many good images, we are editing to upload our current adventures.

See You Shortly!
