Popular Internet dignitary Jane Freidinger visited Hidden Blog last week and shared her experience with relatives in Eureka, Illinois on Sunday evening.
The minimally-publicized visit was prompted by Joe McDonald's invitation to her to become a Facebook friend.
"I figured that her chances of accepting were decent, since I ushered at her wedding and, you know, we're related," McDonald said.
Freidinger, married to Dena's brother Darren, quickly agreed to the proposal. The move brought her number of friends up to 141, slightly ahead of McDonald's 2.
"Facebook is a terrific gauge of a person's popularity, heck, of a person's basic worth as a human being," McDonald added, noting that they also shared one mutual friend, ICC academic advising phenom Dona Young.
Freidinger, self-described as "direct," readily inscribed a greeting on McDonald's photoless Facebook page. "I see by your profile that you've entered the Witness Protection Program," said the sudoku queen.
Freidinger herself may be in the Wooden Prevention Program, openly uninspired by the words of the 97-year old coaching icon dotted throughout Hidden Blog.
"Who is this?" Wooden said, when alerted to Freidinger's comments by phone.

Joe, your blog has me laughing until tears stream down my face! You would be a perfect fit on the writing team for "The Office" or in some witty BBC production. I promise to research John Wooden so I can learn why he has such a prominent spot on your blog. Until then, here's hoping you catch Country Joe...
