I would like to make you aware of the possibility that not everything within this website is as it seems, if that wasn't so obvious already. I like to have fun, and experiment, and this website is simply another area to do all of that. With most of my online development being spontanious, it is likly that some areas of the website are still suffering growth issues, or are awaiting the birthing proceedure. There is a laborotory somewhere, with those heat chamber thingies, but I can't remember what happened to them. I might have been playing with them at some point, as you do, warming things up, instead of nurturing baby content into something I can set to roam free on here. What? I'll get to it. Sheesh.
Nope. I decided long ago I no longer require one. They are icky. And they get in the way of other things. And they lurk there, doing nothing, with only three links in them.
Without a sidebar of page links, it becomes a little difficult to navigate around, so each area is now accessible via the links at the top, and bottom, of each page. I think this is better, especially for those useful links within every page.
What information is held here?:
As a gateway to my other online projects, this website simply holds a Privacy Policy for your piece of mind; a contact form for messages to me; my personal Biography; a change-log; and a Colophon on the development and hosting environments. It's not all uber-awesome information, but it is there non-the-less, for your perusal.
I do. My name is Tony Gibson. Pleased to meet your annonymous online aquaintenance.
Why don't you just have a Weblog?:
I have thought about this, but I always come back to the conclusion of having the Cookery and Roleplay boards, along with the Portfolio and Projects area, which all, ideally, require the use of a Privacy Policy and some Terms of Use. Storing these in one location is so much easier, along with a site map and contact form. So the remainder of the pages just fell in to place along side them.
Is everything here true?:
If by here you are referring to this website, then mostly. Only the index page holds slightly fabricated information. Everything else has been injected with humour, and sprinkled with a little crazy. I shall allow you to figure out which is which.
What if I don't like what I read?:
As, along with myself, you have the right to your own opinion, if the content here is not for you, feel free to close the tab, and move on to another website. You don't need to contact me in disgust, or with your complaints. Not everyone will enjoy what I write, but I am not doing this for other people. I am doing this for myself. I am not to be held responsible for any direct; indirect; incidental; or consequential damages to your intelligence; intellectuality; or eyes resulting from you reading any content contained here.
But, why have you written that?:
With the textual content being written by myself, here and on the Weblog, it is of my own mind and opinion, and may hold my views on certain subject matters. Unless otherwise noted, within a post, or via the relevent tags, all Weblog content relates to my personal life, and is available ‘as-is’, meaning there are no alternative versions, and content will not be removed for any reason. Content may, however, be modified without notice, and at my discretion. If any of this is an issue, please apply the page link to an IM conversation, and seek peer advice.
If you feel that a Weblog post is worthy of a comment, then, by all means, make one. I will aim to respond to all comments as soon as I am notified of their existence, dependant upon the time of day you post; your timezone; or whether you're American. It may be several hours before I get to my e-mail client, so don't worry if you recieve no reply. I just have other things to do too. Oh, do note that childish behaviour in comments will be crushed. Just like your childhood dreams.
Would you like a new career?:
Yes. Pay me to sit on my bum and write stuff on here, and you have yourself a new member of staff. I may also be pursuaded to review films; foods; games; or gadgets, or anything really. My perfect career would involve Military hardware though, so I doubt you could give me that. Second best would be some form of driving, preferebly LGV's. An office setting, or a small Café, would be okay though, if they where to be part-time, due to my mental health issues and such. If you are a potential employer of mine, then everything you have read here still stands, regardless of your views, or the views of your company. If you somehow feel you cannot employ me because I speak my mind, or have my own views, then I can deal with that; and you can simply move on, as I do not wish to work for you.
