Mister Ron's Basement #144

George Ade's 1904 tale of a boarding house, 'The Regular Kind of Place and the Usual Way it Turned Out' may recall an almost-vanished custom, but it's still very, very funny. Time: approx six minutes Book Relief is an unprecedented, publishing industry-wide effort that will distribute at least five million books to those displaced by the Hurricanes, to schools and libraries supporting the evacuees, and to replenish the schools and libraries ultimately rebuilt in the Gulf Coast. Over 370,000 children are displaced, and over 600 schools destroyed. Help get books back into the lives of those affected by Hurricanes and Floods. Please visit http://www.bookrelief.org to take part in this worthy project. The Book Standard, an online magazine devoted to the Publishing Industry, features Mister Ron's Basement and some other wonderful podcasts in an exploration of Public Domain Podcasting.
