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.

International Eat an Animal for PETA Day Today is International Eat an Animal for PETA Day. This is a response to the evil misanthropes of PETA, specifically their wicked "holocaust on a plate" campaign equating the eating of meat with the Nazi holocaust. Under the Elvis Costello model of "I used to be disgusted, but now I try to be amused" decent denizens of the blogosphere are answering this nonsense by making a special point of eating tasty animals today to let the people-haters known as PETA see how impressed we are. To that end, you can drop them a note to let them know what kind of deliciousness you are enjoying from your perch atop the food chain.
Now, as far as I'm concerned EVERY day can be an eat an animal for PETA day since I'ma eat them tasty critters anyway, except that I don't really want to think of this organization every day. It's sort a Homer Simpson friendly protest.
Myself, my goal is to eat at least 10 different species of animals today. Now I certainly like to eat, but even I have limits. Therefore, most of those species will probably be in token amounts, like eating a communion wafer. A few bacon bits on a salad might be my pig consumption. [Of course, you could come up with 10 different ways of eating a pig today. Bacon, sausage, brautwurst, pork chops, pickled pigs feet (a delicacy favored by my late grandfather).] One way or another though, birds and pigs and fish and cows and maybe some others will all be making their way to my belly today. I forsee a visit to the Old Country Buffet in my near future.
