Yes, We Have No Bananas 0

I had a delightful breakfast with Shaun Mullen in Newark, Delaware, several years ago, when I was on my way to attend First Daughter’s party to celebrate her graduation from Temple University with a Master’s degree.

Shaun has long been a favorite read of mine. I admire his insights and his writing. Elsewhere in these electrons, I have reviewed his book, which I commend to your attention.

He has been absent from the blogosphere due to bad luck and broken bones, but he returns to look back on the year. A nugget:

Most Telling Statistic of 2013: Some 70 percent of the laws enacted in the wake of the Sandy Hook elementary school massacre weakened gun control.

Follow the link. You will not regret it. You will also learn why this post has the title it has.

And pray that he does not forsake his mouse and keyboard, as he is inclined to do, tired of the battle and frustrated that stupid is in the catbird seat.

His voice is needed.

Tell him so.

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.
