There’s One Born Every Minute, Gag Me with a Spud Dept., Reprise 3
Karen regales me with this picture from a grocery store somewhere in the Wild West, where she resides:
The “Pay Extra for Saran Wrap” movement is growing.
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.

I thought you’d like that, when I saw it.
We do baked sweet potatoes all the time. But, I’ll pay about $1.50 for a pound of them, instead of the 10 for $10.00 special that was going on when I took that picture. We don’t do candied sweet potatoes. That’s disgusting.

If the “average person” shopping in a grocery store forks over $1 for individually wrapped sweet potatoes, there is no recession.

They’ve added something new. A “tray” of whites, 4 of them, for $2.99.
I paid $2.99 for 5 pounds of bakers. But then, I’m not rich, or stupid. At least tonight, anyway.
