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 would ask where you find these, but do I really want to know?

Many years ago, I was playing Trivial Pursuit.
I was lucky that day. I knew a lot of answers.
At the end, someone asked me, “How do you know all that stuff?”
I give you the same answer I gave then: “I read the newspaper.”
I love newspapers. Printed. Electronic. I don’t care. I love newspapers. When I travel, I don’t read USA today–that’s the MacDonald’s of newspapers, news for the lowest common denominator (as opposed to Fox, the lowest common denominator of spin, but I digress).
I always read the local rag, wherever I am (The Sacramento Bee, by the way, is a damned good paper). Even in Helena, Montana, or Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
And, thanks the the wonderful tubes of the internet, I can read the Washington Post every day.

Just because Rush Limbaugh used to write a column for a newspaper does not make it “a damned good paper.”
But anyway, I refrained from commenting on this pillowfight story last night because I just don’t know what to think about it. There’s something about men enjoying seeing women in conflict that strikes me as perverse in a way I can’t put my finger on. And oddly, I keep getting this feeling it’s related to the tendency of some men to enjoy lesbian porn, too… hmmm…

Ya know, some women get off on seeing men in conflict. If the men are in conflict over said women.
Heck, sometimes, they even set up such conflicts. (Gasp!)
Turnabout is fair play.
No I won’t even go there.January 29, 2007 at 8:40 am
Speaking as a woman, I could take offense, but I won’t, because I know that some women do like to see men fight over them. I personally don’t. What I will say is this: Chris likes his life as it is. If he thinks I’ll fight over him, he got over that years ago. He knows if he tried to do something like that, his home life would be severely disrupted.
