hi there. i’m a former umb student with a blinking big gripe about this blinking website: the blinking blinking ads on every blinking page are a blinking nightmare. i wonder if there isn’t an equally lucrative (because i realize what blinking advertisers pay is in direct proportion to how little blinking aesthetic sensitivity they have) method for you to keep the blinking ship afloat and not give me a blinking headache while i try to read. stop the blinking! it’s bugging me as i write. thank you for your blinking consideration. paula carleton evans
