Policies

Weblogging is only a hobby.� The frequency of my posts fluctuates with how closely my boss is watching me.��
I make no effort to try to be fair or balanced.� This is my forum for expressing my opinion.� Deal with it.�
While I generally try not to offend people, sometimes someone, somewhere, may be offended by something I write or convey.� That is just too damn bad.� If you are offended by anything you read here, simply close your web browser and don't come back.� It is that easy.
While a best effort is used to ensure accuracy, I make no warranty about truth or accuracy of the information I publish.��
Don't accept anything you read here as fact, unless you already know it to be true, or have verified it for yourself.��
Occasionally I delve into satire or sarcasm, which is sometimes hard to convey in print.� If it sounds ludicrous with just a tinge of 'could really happen', feel free to throw the bullshit flag.
I try to give sources credit where it is due.�
While posts usually have an accurate time stamp, I sometimes prepare them a day in advance, and post them early the next morning.

I am not in the practice of editing comments, nor deleting negative feedback.� However, I reserve the right to do so.
I read all comments, and reply to most feedback.
Any email or feedback submitted may be posted for public ridicule.��
To cut down on internet spam and spam-bot trolling, any email address put into the comments or feedback forms is kept strictly confidential. It is not published anywhere on this site, and is only used for private replies.

I refuse to beg for money.� You won't find any Paypal buttons, or Amazon wish lists here.� If you want to help me out, vote to lower my tax rate.��
I refuse to post a local weather report thingy.� You probably live no where near me, so why would you give a shit about my local weather.��
I hate banner ads, pop ups, pop unders, etc.� You will not find any paid ads here.� Please do not confuse this with endorsements, like linking to my web host, or domain name provider.
The site is best viewed in resolutions of 1024x768 or better.� If you are using anything smaller, it may not display correctly.��
This site is programmed for display with Microsoft's Internet Exploiter.� The 3% of readers who use Netscape, or the 0.5% who use Opera may notice problems with some of the font sizes, problems with spacing, and/or problems with the style sheets.��

You are free to link to any material on my website, even to say "Look at this asshole."� I do ask that you let me know that you linked me, so that I may bask in my 15 minutes of fame.��
Please only link to actual pages, and don't 'hot link' photos that reside on my server.� If you want to leech a photo, save it and upload it on your own page.� Don't steal my bandwidth.
My blogroll only consists of sites that I visit regularly.� I don't expect reciprocity from sites I put on my blogroll, so don't expect it from me.

My father was a sailor, and I sometimes swear like one.� While I don't use a lot of 'adult language', I don't censor myself either.� There are tens of thousands of words in the English language, and I reserve the right to use any of them I see fit.
You will never, under any circumstances, see me use censored wussy language like 'f**king' or 'sh*t' or 'g-damn'. I don't see where it is any less offensive to substitute the vowels with unpronounced hieroglyphics.
I don't believe in being 'politically correct.'� While I generally try not to offend people, I don't use PC terms like person-kind, gentlepeople, and hyphenated-American.
