In the latest migration to a new virtual private server, some of the links to images in the earliest posts to this blog were broken. If you encounter one of these broken links, please let me know. I have backups and can restore the images.
There’s only one person who agrees with me on everything, and, as I’m not running for office, that person is not on the ballot.

This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

Honest to Pete, after reading that I’ve no idea why I’m still on the sidebar. The fellow uses “semi-literate” in the lede as a putdown and then overdoses on “fuck.”

I said it was a rant and I warned about the language.
John started out as a Republican war-blogger when George the Worst was in his first term. He realized his error, but he still shows the bitterness of the disillusioned. For all that his language can be intemperate, he’s one of the good guys.
My sidebar is not intended to be consistent. It’s intended to display sites that I respect and that I think do not get enough notice. (Plus the Phillies, as baseball is the only professional sport I take an interest in any more. The corruption of big time football has destroyed any enjoyment I used to take in it, and neither hockey nor basketball fit inside a television screen. I enjoyed both of them in person, but seeing them in person hasn’t been on my radar since the Washington Warriors were called the “Bullets.”)
If you want me to take you off the sidebar, I shall do so willingly, but not happily.
