Okay.  For this, I must call you insane; you want to do this.  Now, I
must call myself insane, for I've actually been stupid enough to do
this. :)

Anyway, go ahead and install some Common Lisp implementation.  SBCL is
fair game, and CMUCL also happens to fall into that category.  Now, go
ahead and put a shebang directive as the first line in your programs
and make them match whatever scheme you have set up for your server to
accept them as CGI scripts.  This *should* work.

http://www.cliki.net/ has some neat stuff for HTML templating and
database connectivity and whatever else.  GUI stuff too.
