Story Corps.......listen to stories or record your own story. What they have to say:

By recording the stories of our lives with the people we care about, we experience our history, hopes, and humanity. Since 2003, tens of thousands of everyday people have interviewed family and friends through StoryCorps. Each conversation is recorded on a free CD to take home and share, and is archived for generations to come at the Library of Congress. Millions listen to our award-winning broadcasts on public radio and the Internet. StoryCorps is one of the largest oral history projects of its kind.

I just listened to Rich's story. The little boy who either wanted to be a Marine Biologist or 10. What a brave mother to be able to tell her's and Rich's story. That's probably very healing for some folks too Casey. It's a wonderful idea and site.

Another great site, Casey. Thanks! We all should record our stories - wish I could sit down with Mother & Dad and hear theirs again.

That was fun I got to 873.2. I kept missing until I finally discovered I needed to wait until the bike is between the two patches of grass to swing.

My favorite kind of game. I actually made it all the way through until they asked for an activation code. I sure was proud of myself. Bigbaby, I don't remember what screen 1 looked like, but you always have to find the square to put through the hole above the door before the door will open so you can drive through.

You have done it again, Kid-O!!! This is the best sight EVER! I am an NPR junkie and I have wanted to check out this site. I forgot and forgot and forgot, but YOU not only reminded me about it, but you put it right in my lap for me! Story corps is such a gift for us all.

Thanks, Kid-O...you are the BEST!
