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.

Richard Marcus, December 2006 Blogcritic of the Month Look, I understand that most good Americans naturally despise Canadians, what with their beady little eyes and their heads so full of lies. Hell, Celine Dion alone could get your country nuked.
But that's not fair. Canadians can't help coming from an inferior country. You can't hold that against a fellow. I, for one, am not prejudiced against Canadians. I'd accept one as a neighbor. Why, some of my best friends are Canadian.
This brings us to Richard Marcus, the sometimes Gypsyman, and December 2006 Blogcritic of the Month. The editorial staff chose him from among some 1200 or so Blogcritics as the outstanding contributor to feature through this Christmas season.
As editor Lisa McKay notes in his write up, Brother Marcus is a prolific contributor writing about lots of things, including Canadian politics, and broad social topics. Personally, I tend to think of him as a music writer, cause that's what I follow closest. Probably about my favorite one piece of his would be this ESSAY ON JOHNNY CASH.
