Folks, let's not make this more than it is. This is my personal blog . . . The opinions expressed here represent my own and not those of my business partners, friends, or anyone else I know or could even possibly be deemed to represent. Furthermore, all information is provided on an "AS-IS" basis, with no warranties of any kind. Surely I'll even contradict myself from time to time, so let's not get too fussy about it.
All content in this blog created by me is my intellectual (ha!) property and protected by U.S. and international copyright laws and cannot be stored on any retrieval system, reproduced, reposted, displayed, modified or transmitted in any form, electronic or otherwise without my written permission, provided, however, I am comfortable with parties posting links to my site via social media such as Pinterest and Facebook.
Any time I give a review or make a comment about the commercially available goods that I use, books that I've read, or movies I've seen, unless I've specifically stated otherwise, I was in no way remunerated to provide such a review. Put another way, people and companies do not give me free things or discounts to say nice things about them.
Many of the links I provide are for fun and enjoyment of all internet users or for informational purposes. I have not been asked to link or post, nor am I paid or remunerated in any way to link or post, to another party's site. I'm not responsible for, nor do I necessarily condone, the content of at the links herein, its comment threads, forums or any other content posted by a third party (unless the content is about bears, pirates, dinosaurs or LOLCats, in which case I probably do condone it and think it is awesome).

If a documented copyright owner so requests of me in writing or via email or Blogger message, his or her material will be removed from display, although I reserve the right to provide a link to or cite a source for such material.

Such material is used in an effort to advance understandings of democratic, environmental, human rights, scientific, historical, anthropological, and social justice issues, among others.
