I ponied up the money to WordPress to eliminate the ads from my site.

I had always used the “free” version of WordPress.  But of course nothing in life is free so apologies to my readers – I didn’t realize how obnoxious the ads were until I moved to a new computer and saw lucept from the point of view of a normal reader – not via the WordPress authoring tool.

I never made any money from those ads and do not endorse any of that content!
