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.

God's Better Creations Are Beautiful From the Inside I usually try to avoid bringing in my people on my website, if for no other reason other than to avoid sullying their good names by association with my hijinks.
Still, I just felt compelled to start out the new year by showing off some of our prime women folk. Can't help myself.
Noticing this two year old photo in my archives, I sent this pic of my beloved cousin Connie Stevens and her daughter Haley to the Thug's Ma, who hasn't met them.
God's most beautiful creations
Noting what beautiful women they are, Thug's Ma suggested that they were a fine display of the benefits of superior genetics.
They are certainly that, but I felt compelled to extrapolate. Not that you could necessarily tell from a simple photo, but these are two of God's finest creations. I don't want to say they're perfect- for all have sinned and fell short of the glory of God. Plus, simple modesty rates high among their virtues. Still, they rate about as close to perfect as a normal mortal human really could.
Connie Stevens has what I would describe as a spiritual glow of just plain, simple genuine devoted loving goodness that comes radiating out of her. Leaving aside her practical displays of virtue and devotion, you can just feel the love.
Girl practically sparkles, and it comes out physically. I am not alone in noting that Connie seems to have actually become better looking with age- not that she wasn't a cute kid. Without revealing a woman's age- which would be unspeakably rude- I'll just say that she looks pretty hot to be old enough to have at one point been MY babsitter. I can see her virtue in her face.
Young Haley isn't far behind. She's so much her mother's daughter, thank God. She's also a pharmacist and a new mother herself since this picture was taken. There's high hopes for the family tree, right there.
