Facebook page

I went to the link taking me to "Josh's" account.

I'm not convinced that this is IG yet.

If we are to assume that the hooklineandminker blog is IG, from his journal, the Facebook page is missing a VERY important detail.

Without spilling my guts to someone who's trying to GJ, whose picture is missing from that page?

I agree, if he is an enthusiast for rare and unique fish and loves meeting others who share his passion then why wouldn't he attempt to do so in one of the biggest social networking websites?

Facebook page

OK, here's my thought:

According to his blog, whose picture should we expect to see as one of his friends?

(And if this person suddenly appears we'll know it was prompted and not IG--of course, having said that, if it isn't IG, they'll leave it alone to appear IG!?!) Are you as confused as I am about that last sentence?

lol, i dont see why peops would bother to GJ but fair play to them for trying the annoying little buggers, lol

i just dont think the facebook page is IG, no proof other then i couldnt find it the other day, but it just doesnt look right, so many things missing that surely a PM would have put in, i mean i presume JJ is paying them to do this stuff for him and i wouldnt pay anyone for such a poorly put together faceache page

I'm not sure if it makes any difference in your search where you're from, but I'm from the states and also searched for both Josh and Evelyn Minker on facebook the day we found HLM and didn't find anything. So I figure this is GJ

I may be wrong but if it was IG, the profile would be set as public access. What's the point of hiding infos to those who don't subscribe to the facebook page. Personnally, I don't add Facebook "friends" that I don't meet in real life.

My point precisely!

And from what we know about Josh, there is one "friend" who is glaring by his absence!

Josh Minker: http://www.facebook.com/people/Josh-Minker/100001250455841
Interests: FISH

Friend #1:
Newt Dotson: http://www.facebook.com/people/Newt-Dotson/667966077

Friend #2:
Ernest Cano Jr: http://www.facebook.com/people/Ernest-Cano-Jr/1054986949

Are they IG?
I don't think they are, as Newt (for one) cannot even be viewed without a FaceBook account.

This would be unfair to anyone playing this "game."

EDIT to add a picture of "Newt" ... For those who wish NOT to sign up for a FB account.

Just in case anyone cares ...
Newt Dotson "Comment" on FB Video ...

You don't need a FB account to view this:
http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=436588360959
Newt made a comment.

Seriously, it's not a song to "LOVE!"

The only reason I'm posting it is because it's called the "20 Second Song", but it's timed @ 1:18

.

EDIT to remove typo

that's my account, i added "josh" as a friend last night. im new to all of this so i didn't realize it was probably a GJ. I'll save you guys the time, this is OOG. The guys in the video are some of my friends from high school and they made the song up at my house one night. I've removed him as a friend to avoid further confusion.
