I've done this recently as well. That, or I've hidden status updates from various pseudo-friends. It's nice to reconnect with that person from high school... for a while, but then I really don't want to hear about their personal lives. Perhaps we need multi-level friendships in Facebook, as in, friends vs. acquaintances? Though I guess if someone friends you and you only "acquaintance" them, things could get ugly.
