Neat Stuff

JAMES LILEKS' WEB SITE IS A DELIGHT. He's a columnist for the Minneapolis Star Tribune, and his site's been around since 1996 or so. His site is a fine look at Americana of yesteryear. One section is called "COFFEE & CHROME restaurants from the days before the chains". Another section is "the american motel", with postcards from the 50's and 60's. And there's a section devoted to matchbook covers, the "Matchbook Museum". Plus other great stuff, presented for your amusement, as Parliament is about to get crunchy.
