FROM THE ALOTT5MA TRAVEL DESK, WEEP NO MORE DIVISION: Commenter Bill couldn't help but wonder, on a day when the target city is much in the news:
I'm meeting some friends for the Kentucky Derby and was hoping someone had any ideas for things to do. I'll be in Louisville from Thursday through Sunday.

And a second question for those who have no answer for the first. I'm looking for audiobook suggestions for my 12 hour roundtrip drive. I'm not much of an audiobook person, as I only have two. The one I recommend to everyone is "True Grit" as brilliantly read by Donna Tartt (here's a 10 minute sample). The other is "Snow Crash," which I enjoy, but then I'm a Neal Stephenson groupie.
