		<description><![CDATA[He&#8217;s not who I remember but someone I&#8217;ll never forget. His eyes meet mine. They&#8217;re fearless. He is ready to leave. I don&#8217;t want him to.
There&#8217;s so much to say it piles onto itself, folding and collapsing and stretching until it&#8217;s indecipherable. The words are stubborn, refusing release.
The warmth in his eyes betrays the chill [...]]]></description>

So the nominations are in and, like &#8216;07, &#8216;08 and &#8216;09, I&#8217;m here to throw in my four cents. As always, I&#8217;ve listed my favorite and the likely winner. These are usually different because I don&#8217;t have any vested interest [...]]]></description>

Seriously, I&#8217;m about to toss down some wisdom you want no part of. If you remain, I take no responsibility for your opinion of me thereafter (it&#8217;ll still be outstanding).
Valentine&#8217;s is a frightening time. The pressure [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Brandy (the liquor). Somehow, this delicious distilled wine has (for reasons I can&#8217;t figure) been given a bad name. As the least possible qualified, I feel I should defend this fantastic fermented marvel.
Recently I&#8217;ve reacquainted myself with the burnt wine bliss and the following defense is entirely selfish and based on this assumption: if you [...]]]></description>

For whatever reason (I think because he hates me or thinks he&#8217;s funny), Punxsutawney Phil decided he&#8217;d like another month and a half of winter. If it weren&#8217;t for my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8230; As of yesterday, I&#8217;ve been working as a contractor for seven weeks. By Monday afternoon, I will have moved into three different cubes; spent about fifty hours on-bus; worked past 8p twice, on three different computers and three sites; and haven&#8217;t been paid. (You read that correctly.)
After a particularly long (cou*12 hour*gh) day, I received [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We used to sacrifice during war, falling heavily into debt that was sometimes recovered through growth or, not so long ago, pillaging the resources of conquered lands. Now we manufacture money so citizens can continue their glut, devaluing the currency, ballooning debt and sparking inflation.
Along with those internal struggles, a global economy means any country&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I finally sat down and watched Powder. The movie aside for a moment, I was astounded by how hilarious the premise is. (Bear in mind, the writer subsequently wrote two Jeepers Creepers movies.)
If you haven&#8217;t seen the movie and would like to, do not read on. I won&#8217;t waste time avoiding spoilers.
