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.

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.

Bitch badly needs a whackin' Why is this fool not a grease spot already? From CNN.com:
The militant Shiite Muslim cleric whom the U.S.-led coalition has vowed to capture or kill warned of suicide attacks Friday if American forces conduct military action in the holy cities of Karbala and Najaf.
At a prayer service in Najaf, Muqtada al-Sadr said his followers would "shed blood to keep our holy city," according to Reuters.
The U.S. military has massed troops around Najaf, a south-central city controlled by al-Sadr's militia, the Mehdi Army. Al-Sadr is wanted by Iraqi authorities in connection with the killing of a rival cleric
"Lots of believers, men and women, came to me and asked permission to become martyrs and to execute martyrdom operations. I keep telling them to wait," Reuters quoted the cleric as saying.
"But if there was an assault on our cities or on our religious authorities we will be time bombs and will not stop before destroying enemy forces."
He's had his militia actively in combat shooting at US troops, and terrorizing the locals besides. Now he's threatening to turn loose the suicide bombers.
Al-Sadr is operating openly in Najaf. The picture there has him at a press conference, speaking to dozens of microphones. It's not like they don't know where he's at.
He's alive why? This guy, and any self-identified followers need to be taken out with extreme prejudice. If what al-Sadr's doing won't get you squished like a bug, then it's pretty much open season to screw with Americans at will.
Apparently, any idiot self-declared "cleric" can do pretty much any kind of evil, murdering crap, and we'll be too intimidated by the supposed threat of angering Muslims to deal with them properly. Hey, maybe the Muslims need to be a little more worried about not wanting to anger US.
Send in an Apache and take this murdering bastard and his followers OUT before they kill any more Americans.
