Each week I will illustrate a Facebook status that was posted by one of my friends. &nbsp;To protect the innocent, the authors of the text will be kept private. &nbsp;But if you find your own status has been turned into art feel free to spread the word!</p>
<p>There are a few guidlines I've come up to start with:</p>
<p>1. The status must come from someone that I know personally or have at least met in person. (No celebrities, politicians, bands, businesses, etc.)</p>
<p>2. I can use the same person multiple times but I will try my best to switch it up. Some people just have more, let's say... <em>vivid</em> updates than others. &nbsp;</p>
<p>3. I will not use links that people post, but I may use commentary that people make on links.</p>
<p>This will most likely be an evolving project so these rules may change. &nbsp;I also may expand it to Twitter and other social networking eventually if needed. &nbsp;Also the first few will be in comic strip form but that may also evolve and become more broad eventually.</p>
<p>So without further ado...</p>
