Facebook is a strange and scary thing

Under the heading of 'everybody else is doing it' I checked out Facebook. When you first log into it, it suggests links to others on facebook you might be friends with. It's creepy what it comes up with -- how did it ever know that I ever KNEW these people? The ones it comes up with basically fall into these categories:

1) Actual friend
2) Former friends you've lost touch with
3) Casual Acquaintances
4) Former Enemies
5) Creepy people you've never actually met, but know of them and have made it a point to avoid
6) People whose names sound vaguely familiar but you can't figure out why
7) People you swear you've never heard of
