I've been doing a lot of traveling and a lot of work recently so why not a link that combines both of these?

Betty in the Sky with a Suitcase really good site-- one (start hick accent) of these newfangled podcasts (end hick accent). There are some amazing stories-- especially the one of her experiencing the Northridge earthquake, a hijacking to Cuba, and lots more. Don't be put off by her kind of strange manner and kind of strange music. Betty is definitely worth listening to.

Books for America

I hadn't realized that these people had set up a physical presence beyond filling up the ballroom of the Raddison Hotel every three months ago. Now they seem to have an actual storefront at 1417 22nd Street, NW here in Washington, DC near the corner of 22nd & P in Dupont.

Check these people out if you haven't already. They have lots of great books and it's for a really great cause!
