Recently the editorial staff of the "Quotes of the Day Page" has come under fire with claims of slander.
Let’s be clear right here, that the editorial staff consists solely of me, Adam D. Conner.
Yes the things that I write are biased, very biased. They are biased for a single, simple reason.
These are all quotes that I encounter in MY day.
These are my experiences and thus come tainted with the full perspective and opinions of one Adam D. Conner.
I'm sorry that no disclaimer has been posted, but I was naive enough to think that it was fairly self-explanatory.
While tonight my views were challenged and I myself was subject to various threats of physical and legal harm, my faith in the competence and intelligence of my readers is not shaken.
If nothing else it is reaffirmed.
I won’t beat the often repeated First Amendment drum, or even cite various legal decisions involving slander and the attribution of quotes such as the 1991 Malcolm versus New Yorker Magazine decision.
I will simply say that I bring you this website with the sole intent of bringing a little amusement, entertainment, and joy into your lives.
I would like to think that the overwhelmingly positive response is indicative of your enjoyment.
My original intention in the creation of this website was to archive and chronicle the amusing and off the cuff lines that find their way into my daily conversations.
But since the creation of this website I have found that people have begun to think a little more before they open their mouth, to make their thoughts a little deeper and their words a little wittier.
And that can do nothing but benefit us all.
Those of us lucky enough to have an audience to avail them to understand the responsibility they hold to their readers and I take that responsibility seriously, hard as that may be to believe.
So I’m going to get off my high horse now and continue to bring you the highlights of my day.
Thanks for reading.
Adam D. Conner
