Notice to Readers

If what you find here isn't to your liking, thanks for stopping by, and we'll part gracefully (or not so gracefully, as the case may be). I do express my opinions here, and my thoughts, and my ponderings, and other perhaps inappropriate things, and sometimes those are things you won't agree with. I apologize for that, because maybe it will offend you and you deserve an apology.
