Please don’t steal.  All content I publish on this blog is owned by me unless specified otherwise.  I’ve put in a lot of hard work to create the content of this blog and would appreciate it if you didn’t try to pass any of it off as your own.  After all, that would be real thug-like of you.  If you would like to use, reprint, or republish any of the content/images on this blog, please see the following:

  • Credit the source/make a reference to where the content/image was taken from or;
  • Link back with a hyperlink back to the post from which you took the information

Comment Policy

All of your comments are welcomed and encouraged on this site after  pre-approval, of course, but there may be some instances where I may delete/not allow comments:

  1. If any comments look at all like spam, they’re a goner.  I really don’t need the headache and there’s not enough pain medicine in the world.  If you want to include a link to any relevant posts, that is fine—but comments should generally be relevant to the post topic for the most part.
  2. Comments with overly excessive over-the-top profanity will probably be deleted/not allowed—especially if it doesn’t look like you know any other words in the dictionary.
  3. Comments that attack a person individually or are extremely argumentative will be deleted/not allowed.  I love a good debate and don’t expect everyone to be in love with each other or anything but………..you get the idea.  So feel free to debate and differ all you want to without a lot of excessive hate, please.

The Comments section is currently set up where you do NOT have to register, leave your name, or email address  just to comment.  You can ignore the form that pops up if you so choose.  You only need to write inside the Comment box and click Post Comment.  Your comments will be posted immediately after pre-approval.

The owner of this blog (that’d be me) reserves the right to edit/delete any comments submitted to this blog without notice.  This comment policy is subject to change at any time.
