it is NOT in alphabetical order... here is what I felt I had to post on my own home page:

TO ALL MY FRIENDS WITH AVATARS HERE:
I don't really understand this friend thing, other than for the convenience of clicking to zoom to your home page and then click the WORD to "contact" you. I refuse to try and organize "friends", and it is not default alphabetized... I do NOT want to insult anyone, so be assured all I am doing is accepting your requests and letting the avatars fall where they do by default.
You are all equally dear to me!
