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.

New CD Album Releases, 12-8-2009: Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown, Jimmy Buffett Snoop Dogg is back with his 10th album, Malice N Wonderland. I don't know that I'm hearing any substantive song compositions, but that may be subject to a full listening. But what does jump out is the superb state of the art groove engineering. Snoop merits a good listen.
Is it that Jimmy Buffett sounds kinda like Garth Brooks, or that Brooks was inspired by Buffett? Which is the worse crime? On the other hand, Buffet just has more personality in his mediocrity, which is something. Buffet Hotel is approximately Jimmy Buffett's 116th album. He's at least got the beginnings of something unusual with the Antarctic Caribbean groove of "Turn Up The Heat And Chill The Rose."
