I live about a 20 minute walk from my house... Of course most days I
take the bus, which means it takes about 30 minutes to get to/from
work... but hey... more time I can spend reading and less chance I'll
get run over cause I've just got to a good bit in the book when I cross
a street. Yes, I read while I walk. Often. ONly time I've even come
close to getting hit was when some dumb lady ran a red light...
