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.

Merle Haggard defends the Dixie Chicks Merle Haggard has an editorial on his website questioning the wisdom of the war in Iraq, and defending the Dixie Chicks. You might be a bit surprised to hear these sentiments coming from the author of "The Fighting Side of Me":
I don't even know the Dixie chicks, but I find it an insult for all the men and women who fought and died in past wars when almost the majority of America jumped down their throats for voicing an opinion. It was like a verbal witch-hunt and lynching. Whether I agree with their comments or not has no bearing.
Then again "in the same breath" he also pronounces his admiration for Toby Keith.
That's Merle Haggard for you, Mr. Love.
