I know this is a bit off topic...but quick question:

I am interested in learning more about creating my own website (without iWeb), but have very little time in my schedule. Are there any books that give a good basic tutorial for learning code that are easy for a beginner to understand. Perhaps a "Websites for Morons" series.

If you want to learn the basics to do web sites then I would recomend Wrox's Begining Web Programming with HTML, XHTML, and CSS or, Head First HTML with CSS and XHTML. They may require a little more work than some of the "For Dummies" stuff but at the end of the day, and this is opionion, you have usable knowledge.

Not a book, but a great place from the beginning to the advanced: http://www.w3schools.com/

Am I really supposed to trust them to teach me good UI?
