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.

Why we fight Born Alecia Moore on September 8, 1979, the queen of punk pop turns 23. "Don't Let Me Get Me" has to be rated one of the top half dozen jams of the year. Pink has perhaps the best mainstream pop album in the market this year [Missundaztood], along with the India.Arie record.
What Pink and and Arie have in common with each other and different from, say, Britney is songs. Among other things, young Alecia was dosed with Bob Dylan. Some of that rubbed off enough for her to specifically write some of the best pop songs of the year. I ain't putting her up with Dylan, but she's already way north of the kiddie groups song technology wise.
Most obviously, Pink has become the spiritual heir of Joan Jett. She definitely don't give a damn about her bad reputation. She's still young, but if she makes three or four more albums this good, she'll make you forget every chick west of Sinead Herself.
You know, this is why we fight the Moslem fundamentalists: Pink wearing a burka just wouldn't cut it.
