It will add a little spice to my surfing.

Just have to be careful that I don't get the right wing ads that appear once and a while.

1. Okay
Just don't overdo it, if you start clicking on every ad ten times each they'll all get thrown out.

4. Good idea
I'm going to do the same thing. Hopefully I'll start getting more interesting ads to click on than the "perfect golf swing" ones I'm getting all the time at the mo.

Thank you so much, Amonester!! I am very touched by and extremely grateful for your generosity.

Sorry about the delay in replying, we are expecting our 1st child (a girl) within the next couple of weeks and I've been super busy working on a second job so we can save up for all the things we'll need.

Thank you again and best wishes,

T :hi:

6. I didn't give you a star but
I consider it a noble thing to do. I've donated stars in the past.
Just trying to scrape by these days. I'm glad you have a star.
Peace and progress to you.

7. I love that the RW is spending money to advertise here! And I
think it bodes well for Skinner, et al, if there IS some interest shown, don't you? Keeps 'em coming back with more advertising revenue. :7

8. ok, just so you know. this is not a mod/official opinion
but that of someone who has had google ads on websites of my own- it is a violation of the terms of service agreement for the owner of a site to get people to click on ads just to earn money.
now, i am not the owner of this site, and sure i would not be considered one who shouldn't encourage people to click the ads.
but what i am sayin' is- if you click the ads of wingnuts, they have to pay du money. if you click the ads of the good guys, and don't proceed to the checkout, then they have to pay for a click that doesn't bring them anything.

by all means take a look at whatever interests you. just remember whose pockets the money comes out of.
