This journal is the opinion of the writer and is not intended to malign any religion, race, ethnic group, club, organization, company, or individual.
My views are my own, and do not in any way reflect the views of the people who live in my neighborhood, city, county, country, continent, hemisphere, planet, star system, galaxy, or universe of origin.
Please also note that the fact that this is written in English is in no way meant to malign other languages or linguistic entities, nor to malign those who are illiterate or visually impaired and thus are unable to read anything written here. Furthermore, the individual letters, words, and punctuation marks involved had no option but to be placed into this site, and should not be held accountable for my statements.
Any spelling or grammatical errors are not the responsibility of the schools I attended, the teachers I was taught by, the regional governments who did or did not fund my educational system, or anyone else involved in my education.
In point of fact, I take full responsibility for my actions and opinions and do not hold my parents, siblings, other relations, friends, neighbors, acquaintances, people in any proximity, or that strange guy I talked to on the bus three weeks ago responsible for anything in the following work, or for anything else I may or may not have done. I freely admit that my views may not be the same as those of my employer, associated deities, ethnic group(s), neighborhood watch program, fiefdom, government, or any other club/organization.
In addition, my thoughts and opinions change from time to time… I consider this a necessary consequence of having an open mind and a questing intellect.
No trees were harmed in the creation of this blog, but several electrons were rather inconvenienced.
