I wouldn't want to ask people to just give me money cause they like my website, but do please take a quick look at Barger's Boutique. You might find yourself a little something-something for 2 or 3 bucks that you just can't resist! Any of the round images you find around MoreThings will get you to an Amazon page to buy my stuff and help ol' Al keep the lights on.
Links
To explicitly state the obvious, these external links go to interesting and provocative websites, but they speak for themselves. I don't necessarily agree with anything they say - especially that no-goodnik Richard Marcus.

New album releases, week of 11-16-2004 Neil Young has a greatest hits album out today. Young has show remarkable restraint over the years in not loading up bunches of compilation albums. This is his first ever single disc hits set. Looks pretty good.
The Beatles have a new box set, The Capitol Albums, Vol. 1. It contains the first four American Capitol records (Meet the Beatles!, Second Album, Something New, Beatles '65), which were famously made from slicing and dicing the several albums they had already put out in England, where there were never albums of these titles. These four albums were the primary inspiration for the famous butcher block cover.
Artistically, it makes much more sense to skip these, and get the standard English albums as the boys put them out. However, they would quite understandably be a big point of nostalgia for American Beatles fans of a certain age.
Destiny's Child has a new album out, Destiny Fulfilled.
Eminem's Encore album is out. On the basis of the couple of songs I've heard, he seems to be about played out.
Besides Eminem, there are several big name rap albums this week, including entries from Snoop Dogg, Chingy, and a hits album by Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.
Bon Jovi has a box set, 100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong. I don't really give a rat's ass about Bon Jovi, me being a music fan and all. However, the title and album cover are cute.
