boost my facebook status for my business?

I have helped plenty of folks with computer questions, just hoping a few of y’all might be willing to “like” my business on FB, make it look like I am the cool broadly loved kinda business everyone should have in their contact list  
I occasionally post computer tips and links to interesting services I find in my wanderings. The occasional special deal…not a spammy friend I swear.

Take a gander through my page, if you see any tips or items you would be willing to share, please do so.

Thank you.

Shit happens. Usually a clear-cut sign that you need to pour another cup of coffee. 🙂

Liked. I have an aunt that used to live in Fresno - it smelled terrible whenever we visited her during fermenting season.

That’s the smell of [basturma](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pastirma) curing in the Armenians’ back yards. Stuff will knock a buzzard off a shit truck at 100 yards. Or since it’s Fresno, it might just be the meth labs.

I liked you too. Good luck with that, it sounds like a useful and interesting service.

Maybe you should include in your header that it’s a business page. I saw this earlier, but didn’t look at it, thinking it was just a personal page.

> \*\*Pastırma is prepared by salting the meat, then washing it with water and letting it dry for 10-15 days. The blood and salt is then squeezed out of the meat which is then covered with a cumin paste called _çemen_ (lit., ‘fenugreek’) prepared with crushed [cumin](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumin), [fenugreek](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenugreek), [garlic](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garlic), and hot [paprika](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paprika), followed by thorough air-drying. Depending on the variety of the paprika, it can be very spicy but not quite as hot as, for example, hot chili.[[3]](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pastirma#cite_note-2)

It is to die for. My cousin makes his by wrapping it in cheesecloth and hanging it from a tree in his yard. The flies come from miles around to try to get at it. Another one of my cousins eats it for breakfast.

I liked you. And I’ll go like you from my deli page too.

I spent 30 years in Clovis and Fresno. The winery at Olive and Clovis is a smell like no other. I like my new area better, but still have lots of family in your area. I’ll ask them to like you too. 🙂
