I love looking through old newspapers both for the historical portrait that they offer as well as their potential for story ideas. Newspapers.com is a new service which offers archives of many different papers from the 1700s to now - imagine the possibilities! It is a fee-based service, but it does offer a 7 day trial period. If you are a history buff or a writer searching for your next great idea, it might be worth a look.

I saw this tote bag at a bookstore recently and burst out laughing. Turns out there is a whole CafePress shop dedicated to the merchandise! http://www.cafepress.com/+i-like-big-books-and-i-cannot-lie+gifts
