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.

We're not old. God is old. Paul Simon was born October 13, 1942 Happy number 60!
He has really maintained his artistic credibility, even momentum throughout a long career, which almost no other rock era musician has done. His quality control has been outstanding; you can't go wrong buying a Paul Simon album. They're all good, and most of them are absolutely GREAT.
If you have any sense, you already have a couple of copies of everything Simon and Garfunkel related, and probably three copies of Graceland. Looking for something to expand your Paul Simon universe, try The Capeman, made up of songs from his Broadway musical. Fascinating experiment, outstanding songs, and quite different from anything else in the catalog.
For his 60th birthday, let's conclude with a some appropriate lines from "Old," his excellent Buddy Holly styled song from his most recent album.
The human race has walked the earth for 2.7 million
And we estimate the universe about 13-14 billion
When all these numbers tumble into your imagination
Consider that the lord was there before creation
God is old
We're not old
God is old
He made the mold
