“An Armed Society Is a Polite Society” 0

Quite by happenstance, I live near a golf course (I don’t golf–I point and laugh).

I have neighbors whose windows have been broken by errant shots. Several of my neighbors have, with full approval of the condo association, mounted thick sheets of plexiglass over particularly vulnerable windows.

Usually, the golfers just walk on by, but, in several cases, showing the integrity for which their scorecards are renowned, they have promised to pay for fixing the windows, then followed up by giving false names and addresses and, in one case, a fraudulent check.

Consquently, it is essential to show courtesy on the links.

A man has been arrested on suspicion of shooting and wounding a golfer after an errant ball broke a window at his home.

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.
