Like you said, maybe we should all use good sense and live a respectable life and not get ourselves in a position to be compromised by photographs or portrayed in a negative light. Still, we should be allowed to be ourselves and have fun. Likewise, we should also be more tolerant of those who do find their lives posted for all to see. Next time it just may be our mug up there on that virtual billboard. .-= Dean Brandon´s last blog ..<a href="http://cyberdentist.blogspot.com/2009/09/typical-day-in-pediatric-dentistry-part.html" rel="nofollow">A Typical Day in Pediatric Dentistry-Part 2</a> =-.

One of the behaviors that I find lacking on many social networking site is the trait of common-sense. Sometimes, in the quest to put some degree of celebrity and recognition around ourselves, too many people have eschewed humility and self-respect as virtues in the though that any publicity is good publicity. Frankly put, it isn't. There's something to be said for authenticity in your persona, or for people to know and understand who you are as well as any strongly held views you may have. But I believe that can be done tastefully and not look like a Mardi Gras parade that will haunt me in the coming years. .-= Andrew?s last blog ..<a href="http://www.suburbanites.com/my-random-musings/and-the-idiot-of-the-month-award-goes-to" rel="nofollow">And the Idiot of the Month Award goes to?</a> =-.

Reputation is reputation after all, however it is packaged. Dress it with a dose of self respect always and be guaranteed an element of safety. Being true to oneself, for example, the dames in Las Vegas can hardly portray to their friends that they epitomise Mary Poppins and consider their audience in doing so. Maybe that is exactly it....the audience is not completely realised..we are neither talking the matinee crowd nor the hammered after hours hangers on...we are talking those potential judges, those authoritarians in the form of parents and bosses..those we can ill afford to upset looks good.
