This is MY blog, for MY amusement.  I have the final word on any and all comments.

You’re not obliged to agree with me, flatter me or stipulate that I have a point.  You can call me crazy, stupid, ill-informed or an Evil Conservative — feel free.  If, however, your comment is obnoxious or obscene I may delete it rather than publish it.  If your comment is vicious, mean-spirited or hurtful I may alter it rather than delete it.  Such alteration will not be flattering to you.  I may, in fact, take great pleasure in changing your comment to “I LIKE TO EAT POO AND I’M UGLY” before banning you.

All that being said . . . welcome to my blog!
