Carlos Castaneda
Anyone else read these books. I've read them all except maybe one or two of the later ones. What do people think about them?

NPR National Public Radio and Its Stories and Reporting
Does anyone listen? I'm a big fan of the MOTH hour. I'm trying to get a spot on the show actually. I was listening to the news this morning and was surprised at how one sided the reporting has become though. That was disheartening.

I gave myself a lot of time to think about what is and isn't worth the time and effort, what should and shouldn't be said. I sometimes blew it that way myself and I apologize for that.
