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 10-11-2005 Girl power continues to rule again in this week's new releases. The true queen of all time and space, Dolly Parton continues her rule of the universe with the release of a curious sounding new album of bluegrass flavored covers, Those Were the Days. On the extremely questionable side, she sings "Imagine." There oughta be a law against covering "Imagine." On the good side, she re-unites with ol' Porter Wagoner for the title song, and I'm pretty interested in what she might do with "Both Sides Now" or "Me and Bobby McGee."
If that's not enough girl power, there's a new album by the lesbian teen craze t.A.T.u., who are Dangerous and Moving. It remains to be seen if they've come up with another actual good song. Stranger things have happened.
The girl power keeps on a comin' with an Unplugged album by Alicia Keys, is acoustic but not stripped down, with full orchestrations. WARNING: This CD purposely corrupted by the record company with copy protection, so you may wish to look this up on P2P for a download rather than paying for stuff that's designed not to work.
Ah, and representing for the "men" this week, albums by Jackson Browne, Hanson and Ricky Martin. Monsieur Martin has been seeking to expand his sound by going to India for string sections on this record. Also, I would have thought he was commercially left for dead, but I note that his Life album is as high as #26 at Amazon today.
