Pay No Attention to the Sidebar

I just noticed the damn Unicef ad that Google Ads figured would be such a great match for this site based on key words/content or whatever the hell they use. Unfortunately I cannot click on it to determine its source and filter it out, and because it's a Flash thingie, right-clicking tells me nothing--nor does the ad filter guide--it does not show up when I follow their instructions. I entered the url from the ad and blocked it, but that may not be where it goes. I can't ask one of you to send me the url because that's also a no-no.

I will continue doing what I can to kick those anti-gun globalist parasites out of here. In the mean time, do not click on their ad--I don't want them thinking this is a good market for them or for like ads.

If this continues to be a problem, I may just cut the damn ads altogether--the whopping .40 I've made so far today is hardly worth compromising the integrity of this site--I'd need at least twice that much. As it stands, I think my ROI for labor here averages out to about .03/hour anyway.

Don't know if this will help you but here is the link to the flash ad.

I have noscript and adblock plus, I don't think I've ever seen any of your sidebar ads.

I'm not seeing it either, David. We need to help you find a better way to finance this thing. :)

UN crap has got to be just about enough to make you tear your hair out... and you've got much better things to do. [big grin]

David, are you telling me you get paid for clicking on the sidebar ads?

Only the ones from Google. On a good day, I can make over a buck.

The rest of them are things I created and put up as links to other pages i want to direct people to.
