In response to question 1. A simple alias can be formed thusly
Code:
alias lla='ls -la'

within .bashrc. If you want fancy stuff, consider functions. See this thread for some information on parameters within functions.

For Q2, if you want to source other scripts at login, place a line such as
Code:
. /path/to/my/script

within .bash_login. You can do similar stuff with .bash_logout to execute commands and scripts at logout.

You can see my .kshrc file file which is the Korn shells equivalent of .bashrc and might give you some ideas.

Cheers
