A Christmas Present for Mom

I acquired the habit of listening to National Public Radio (NPR) from mom, who had it running all day, every day (Osman and I sometimes joked about the very strange songs that played on that radio, including such masterpieces as Dunkin' Bagels, and Don't Darken My Towels No More). She was very sad at one point because she thought she would not be able to listen to it when she moved to Cairo (It is available online, so that was not a problem). Because I know she loved it so much, I have decided that since I can no longer get mom a meaningful present for Christmas, I will donate some small sum of money to NPR in her name. It can't be very much because things are tight, but I will give what I can to my local station.

Care to join me?
