    Yeah, but big words used properly. There’s nothing wrong with big words used properly.

    My friend got an update from her broker in the mail yesterday. She could not figure out what the hell he was trying to tell her.

    It was full of big words used improperly, corporate-speak in the nth degree, gobbledy drowning in gook.

    Big words used improperly. Sad!

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.
