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.

New album releases, week of 12-14-2004 If I were really a sick bastard, I might take some interest in the grotesquely necrophilic specter of 2Pac's now NINTH posthumous albumLoyal to the Game, executive produced by his mother, Afeni Shakur. Jebus H Criminy, what are they doing to be getting this many posthumous albums? What are they going to do for #10, mic his coffin and loop the sounds of worms chewing to make rhythm tracks?
My more prosaic interests, however, run mostly to music (songs, and melodies, and such what). Seeing that 2Pac wasn't any good at that stuff even when he was alive, I doubt death has improved his compositional abilities. On the other hand, I'm sure he can de-compose as well as Beethoven or Jimi Hendrix.
Just attaching Eminem's name to this 2Pac album doesn't make it work either. His own album ain't sounding like much, and isn't setting the woods on fire.
Other than that, there's a new Ashanti album Concrete Rose, though I can't quite remember her hit, so that's not sounding like anything of importance.
