:) I feel like cueing the Tom Waits song, Step Right Up.
As for filters... I've just discovered FB filters. They're easy, actually, you can do them status update by status update. From your profile page, click the little lock-lookin thingy to the left of the "Share" button. Scroll to 'customize'.
Under "Make visible to" you can choose to show only certain people. And there's also a "hide this from" option. You can choose individuals, or this is where you may consider setting up friends lists in advance ("conservatives" for example).
The only glitch I can think of right now (until FB changes the format with no notice again of course) is that you seem to be limited to Friends Lists of twenty-ish people for the filtering to work without being glitchy. I tried putting a list of about 45 together and when I'd try to save my settings, it would default to saying my post was visible to me only.
Anyway. With the exception of my FlowerPower Fund Raising post today, my last several updates have been filtered to less than my whole friends list.
oh, ps: The way I solved the 45ish friends issue was setting up three separate lists of no more than 20 people. And when I don't want them to see an update, I put all three friends lists in "Hide this from".
