[This isn’t meant to be an ad, it’s a reminder for myself. Ignore this post at will. No pressure. I mean it.]
[Also, don’t fret. Winter vignettes will return soon.]
I never post an Amazon link to “a thing you might want to buy” unless I’ve personally bought and/or tested it (or an identical item). (Occasionally I’ll discuss an experimental idea I’m considering, but I’m always clear if I’m not fully informed.)
Also, I’m a cheap bastard. I expect every little purchase to be awesome. Being the kind of guy who’ll suffer a long time before I’ll buy a “luxury” and an almost unAmerican anti-consumer nutcase who’ll research an $8 purchase more than some people ponder buying a new car leads me to discover a few things I want to share.
On the other hand I’m easily distracted.
The upshot is that I often buy something I like but by the time I get around to blogging about it the details are forgotten. As a memory aid (and not a crappy subliminal ad!) I’m putting links to some items of interest here. No particular order. My idea is that whenever I get to blogging about it I’ll cut and paste from this post.
Don’t feel obligated to buy anything. If you’re tapped out, I get it. It’s been a long cold hard winter and I’m going to emerge from it as poor as a church-mouse. If it’s happening to you too… you have my sympathies. Also, I don’t want this place to get overly “salesman-like”. That’s why most of my blog is pure text.
Then again, if you buy anything from any link on my blog (regardless of if it’s the item I linked to) I get a tuppence and a pat on the head from Amazon. I will never turn down free money.
Ignore or read as you wish. Probably all this stuff will get discussed in detail sometime in the future anyway.
