No B.S. Privacy Notice

It stops here, and this can is sealed for your own protection. Yes I stole this image from some website image place and if you created that don't ask for money there's none here

It was suggested to me that I include a privacy notice, get your helmets and knee pads on, here we go.....

There's no EULA to read, no checkboxes to check and the only cookies I care about come from an oven and hopefully served warm. I don't want or need to know what color your car or house is, what you ate today or what your wearing or not wearing or what size you wear or are. I don't want or need to know if you have 2.5 kids, live in a house, apartment or storage shed, a pet rat, cat, ants or aunts, dog or hog or who your ex is or is about to be. If you are seeing cookie notices or any funny boxes in your browser they are coming from your browser and your device which only you can control.

I did not create this site to "Monetize" or profit. The usual web bullshit stays in that can.

This server runs from a Linux virtual machine that I can guarantee I have stripped to nothing (a few times, this is the 3rd new theme) and removed everything I do not agree with, there is no advertising or attachments on this site and it's perfectly clean when it leaves my house and my server so if you are seeing any it's coming from the web and you should use an ad blocker (like u-block origin) cause I cannot do anything about it. I don't want any of this B.S. in my machine and I am sure you do not either.

I created this website/blog to share music and laughter and life with friends, family and like-minded people.

I write points of view about music news and insider business, tech stuff, food, things we use, rent or own, life and the daily grind and things that make us laugh, cry or things that make you go #$%#$!#$^#@!!!!! 

When I find good or bad things whether its food, objects, anything you can think of that crosses my path I may write about it. Those of you that know me know I don't do or speak of politics or religion here or anyplace else because everyone has a right to their own beliefs. That's an entirely different set of cans I will not open.

We live in a world controlled by corporate greed and now AI. Some things we cannot change and some just drive us nuts and I am at war with that everyday as many of us are, from the dumbest smart device to Goofle/dumdroid, wrapplesauce/mac n cheesy, Linus and Micronutz. (Lawsuits are a 5 letter word, this has been disguised for our own enjoyment). Ill share the things that help us or make us laugh and maybe help you from throwing something against the wall. Just remember a lot of this is opinion but when I have facts I'll share proof if it won't put me in jail. Please bookmark this and I will hopefully have a subscription system running soon to make it easier. Enjoy, and thanks for reading. MJS 7-11-26
