Stupid Car Tricks 0

Lady’s foot slips off brake and hits gas pedal. Car runs into day care. No serious injuries.

What I don’t understand is that the story’s lead included this phrase:

a minivan driven by a pregnant woman

What does her being pregnant have to do with the story?

I can see including it in the body as a little human interest element, but putting it in the lead is weird, as it has nothing whatsoever to do with what happened.

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.
