Refusal to post banner ads.

G'day Everyone.

Recently, I was asked in an Instant Message if I would be interested to make extra money off my blog by inserting banner ads. Unfortunately, I let loose on the poor person with series of choice words and some very ugly words.

You see, his timing to IM me could not have been worse because I read on another web page of how one man borrowed a lap top, clicked on a banner ad and thinking it wasn't anything. Turns out that this "banner" had a little program attached to it and nearly cleaned out this guy's money.

So I told this SOB to do himself a favor: GO jump in a bonfire! I've already decided that there will be NO banner ads on this web page. Even if blogspot and google say they got "trusted" ads to click on for blog readers, I am not adding any banner ads.

Be warned. Any banner ads you click on in the Internet area does carry risk. You don't know if the banner ad has been already hi-jacked by a hacker and reprogrammed with a nasty virus. So be careful.

Semper FI!
