      <![CDATA[When I toiled away in a cubicle in a fifth-floor office in a glass tower downtown, I would often escape to the serenity of the Downtown Public Library's courtyard for lunch. The classic and timeless beauty of the design and the shade trees protecting the concrete benches and metal café tables and chairs from the noon sun, plus the soothing sounds from the center fountain, make for a wonderful getaway.

      <![CDATA[Watched all 5 seasons of The Wire from library copies. The one hitch is that with popular but slightly obscure films and books, there may be a looong wait-- I'm about 40th on the list for Winter's Bone.<br>
<br>
Love the PlayAways--like books on tape that you can use on a bike ride.
