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.

The Palestinian Authority polices its own Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinian Authority today have made at least one small gesture in the direction of peace and stability. From the Herald Sun:
GAZA - Two Palestinian bystanders were killed and more than a dozen people wounded yesterday in gun battles between Palestinian security forces and militants.
The internal conflict erupted after militants fired rockets into southern Israel, killing a young woman. Palestinian police attacked to try to prevent further barrages.
Fighting raged in the Zeitoun neighbourhood, a Hamas stronghold, pitting security forces in armoured vehicles against militants firing anti-tank missiles. The dead were unarmed male teens, witnesses said.
It's unforunate if in fact the PA killed innocent bystanders who were not involved in the rocket attacks. On the other hand, this might also be a good point of brutal education: Don't even be hanging out around this kind of nonsense.
A few more moves like this, and even I will start thinking the PA might be serious about wanting to make peace and have a real country for themselves.
