		<title>Starting up a Pencil and Paper RPG Campaign again&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I want to work on the campaign today while I&#8217;m at lunch, but I don&#8217;t really have anything to do on it. So I decided to write about it.
Pencil and Paper gaming (P&#38;P) has always been something I have always really enjoyed. Something about the complexity of rules, the enjoyment of fantasy, and the triumph [...]]]></description>

		<title>On Celebrating Christmas&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Potential Spoilers Ahead Concerning Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, and Maybe Even The Tooth Fairy&#8230;be forewarned.
I find it interesting that people, who on a regular basis don&#8217;t bother with the Lord Jesus Christ, suddenly shift into being radical Christians when it comes to the &#8220;reason for the season&#8221;. I don&#8217;t have a problem with it, [...]]]></description>

		<title>The father of a close friend is passing away today.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s possible that he has already passed.  I saw him this Thanksgiving, and he had his ever-present smile on his face when he saw me, though he was already not doing terribly well. Dick was a gracious and kind man, and the world is poorer without him in it.  As always those who remain on [...]]]></description>

		<title>PayPal locked my account</title>
		<description><![CDATA[PayPal locked my account.  All because I had the audacity to try BUYING SOMETHING WITH IT!!!  Oh heavens to Betsy.
Yeah, that&#8217;s right.  I committed the cardinal PayPal sin of buying something with my PayPal account, and for this grievous offense, they locked my account.  I was at the seller&#8217;s site, they forwarded me to PayPal [...]]]></description>

		<title>All hoppin&#8217; mad about the NY terrorist trial?  Don&#8217;t be so hasty&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I can certainly appreciate when Republicans and conservatives get annoyed when Obama circumvents the Constitution.  One could ask the question as to why Republicans didn&#8217;t squeal when Bush did the same thing, but that&#8217;s neither here nor there.  Today we have a situation where the U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder is bringing Khalid Sheikh Mohammed [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Robert Jordan was a master&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Robert Jordan (RJ) was the author of the Wheel of Time series of fantasy books. I say &#8220;was&#8221;, of course, because he passed away last year after a fight with amyloidosis, which was immensely sad.  It was sad both because it was the passing of a legend, and also because he passed before he could [...]]]></description>

		<title>On Orange Bitters&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My brother-in-law got me a pack of 3 different orange bitters for my birthday for use in cocktails, and I&#8217;d like to say a brief word about each of them:
Regan&#8217;s Orange Bitters No. 6 &#8211; These are the first orange bitters I ever tried, and I still quite enjoy them.  The difference between Regan&#8217;s and [...]]]></description>

		<title>You Know My Name</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If you take a life, do you know what you’ll give?
Odds are you wont like what it is.
When the storm arrives would you be seen with me?
By the merciless eyes I’ve deceived.
I’ve seen angels fall from blinding heights
But you yourself are nothing so divine.
Just next in line.
Arm yourself because no one else here will save [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[MY MOTORCYCLE RUNS!!!!!!!!!!!!
That&#8217;s right, faithful readers, my bike is now in the running state.  Not only that&#8230;it runs WELL.  My high idle appears to be solved, as it now idles consistently.  My loss of power over 5,000 RPM&#8217;s appears to be solved.  I was going around 65MPH, according to my speedometer, and had no loss [...]]]></description>

		<title>The legend becomes reality&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was commenting to a friend the other day that getting my bike back up and running has achieved sort of a mythical, legendary ambiance in my mind.  It seems like every time I try and get it back together, I think of something else to check and find something else to fix.  This past [...]]]></description>
