After hauling a load 3,000 miles in three days, you don't need a Celestine Prophecy. Truckers, who seem to dote on books on tape, rent mostly adventure books, mysteries and sci-fi, according to Audio Adventures, a company based in Colorado that rents tapes at 450 truck stops to 50,000 members. The top July rentals...
...American Life," currently at the Hasty Pudding Theater, is a laughography that chronicles the life and times of Jackie--from Bouvier to Kennedy to Jackie once again. Those who worship at the Altar of Jackie would be better off staying away from "Jackie: An American Life," and instead dote on those cherished Life magazines or testimonials like Wayne Koestenbaum's recent book "Jackie Under My Skin."

A coalition of media companies has endowed the Humanitas Prize so that...
...supposed to be. In that fantasy, her two grandchildren, Joey and Lorrie, arrive to spend the night at her home in the mountains of Clyde, N.C. She cooks their favorite foods and spoils them with gifts. When they act up, she looks away, knowing her job is to dote, not to discipline. When the children leave, she returns to a life of leisure and travel, earned after raising four children of her own. The dream, says Duggan, 68, is of "a time in my life when I can come and go without responsibility to anyone...
