World Cup 0

Don’t care, although, every day this week, my local rag has devoted an entire half page, with lots of white space that could have included, you know, sentences and paragraphs, to previews of the World Cup.

I’m not one to follow a sports event just because it’s eventing.

Guess I’d just as soon see them waste the space on soccer (Association Football, that is) as on NASCAR. Either way the paper soaks up spilled coffee.

Apparently, not everyone shares my apathy.

Some seem to think that Soccer is a librul plot.

It’s clearly not.

It’s a marketer plot.

They want cities to pay for stadiums and fans to buy tee shirts.

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.
