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.

Santa Claus is Big Brother Leonard Peikoff offers a delightfully subversive interpretation of Christmas as a healthy display of American capitalism celebrating our prosperity. Interestingly, he casts Santa as an agent of justice, as he rewards only the good children.
I take a much dimmer view of the deal. Santa sounds like just another nosey commie to me. "He knows when you are sleeping. He knows when you're awake. He knows if you've been bad or good." Hey, you don't need to be spying on me, and being all up in my business. You can stick them goddam toys up your ass. Just a typical nose-under-the-tent liberal giveaway to get you to agree to having this bastard all up in your business. He don't need to know when I'm sleeping or awake, or whoring or studying the Bible. Mind your own fricking business, and I'll buy my own damned toys.
But that's me. Sometimes I just don't work and play well with others. I suppose this'll get me a lump of coal in my stocking- or a visit from his Thought Police.
