		<title>Racisim is alive and well in The Tea Party</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Many civilized people in these United States are likely under the impression that racism has been all but eliminated in this country. But if you aren&#8217;t a pale, white skinned American, you&#8217;d likely say otherwise.Â  As a matter of fact, you&#8217;d possibly say that racism is on the rise in The United States.Â  And, as [...]]]></description>

		<title>Awareness of The Velvet Underground</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;m in the offices of a company that I&#8217;m doing some contract work at, and I hear the receptionist mention the name The Velvet Underground. A name that I would hope would perk up the ears of anyone with any shred of musical knowledge. It turned out that the person that the receptionist was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hippies And Geeks, Oh My</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, if one were to map out the intersection of the various subsets of our culture, it seems likely that one of the groupings that you would notice is the one between geeks and hippies.  And I can understand a large part of the reason behind this, mainly since I am included in that intersection.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Christian Bale freaks out on the T4 set and a song gets made because of it</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Apparently Christian Bale was having a hard day at work recently, on the set of Terminator 4, and he ended up erupting in a spate of anger.  The whole thing ended up getting recorded and folks have subsequently used it as the basis of music.  There&#8217;s one such song that&#8217;s a mashup/remix of it (a [...]]]></description>

		<title>There&#8217;s one less Zippy on the planet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just learned that the man who coined the term Zippy (meaning Zen-inspired Professional Pagan), Fraser Clark, passed away recently.  I only heard of it today, but it seems that this news may be more than a week old.  Apparently he succumbed to liver cancer.  But as one would expect, he was surrounded by friends [...]]]></description>

		<title>I got to throw a shoe at George Bush today</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, in a figurative way at least.  I was heading to an interview at CBS Radio when I passed an action that the people at Direct Action To Stop The War had set up where they had a dunk tank sort of setup with a George Bush figure that you could throw shoes at.  How [...]]]></description>

		<title>Honesty Turns Me On</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s really interesting to contemplate on the idea of honesty, because
honesty actually turns me on.  It would seem like such a simple trait to
follow, but it also seems like all too many people don&#8217;t.  I think that
one of the main reasons is fear.  Fear of being hurt primarily, be it
through ridicule, abandonment, or a number [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Star Of Bethlehem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not sure how many of you readers have been noticing the night sky for the past couple of months or so, but there&#8217;s been a bit of a dance going on every evening.  The planets Jupiter and Venus have been having this mating ritual in the southwestern skies at around sunset time.  Unfortunately at [...]]]></description>

		<title>Signs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There was one point in time where I was lucky enough to be able to experience what, I understand, is considered a highly monumental occurance in the Buddhist culture.  One on the level of being a sign that something monumental has happened.  That one point in time for me was smack dab in the middle [...]]]></description>
