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.

Referrer logs give me the heebie jeebies I got my first clue on the passing of Ray Charles by checking my referrer logs. Suddenly, I had bazillions of people interested in my Ray Charles pages. I punched up the Drudge Report already suspecting the bad news.
Thus, I've been worrying myself today over Tom T Hall. I routinely get a hundred or so people a day visiting my Tom T Hall pages. Suddenly today, it's somewhere north of 2,000 Tom T visitors, mostly all from Google searches.
I appreciate the traffic, but my heart jumped. What would cause a sudden twentyfold increase in traffic? Has the old timer passed on us? I spent probably over an hour scrubbing Google news and various individual music and news sites, without finding any kind of recent story about him.
Hopefully, that means he's fine- but still leaves me scratching my head. Any clues?
