		<title>When Search Engines Go Horribly Wrong</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At my job, when we put together training there are often still images used to accompany the text on the screen, to help get the idea across. Rather than shoot all of these images ourselves (although we do that at times, plus depending on what the course is about we often get photos directly from [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Typical Conversation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is, for the record, a real conversation I had earlier tonight.
Charlie: Ooh, that&#8217;s a great name, we could name a child that.
Greg: No, we already have a name picked out for our mythical child, remember. Huggybear Batman.
Charlie: But that&#8217;s for a boy. What if we have a girl?
Greg: Huggybear Batman.
Charlie: NO.
Greg: Ok, Huggybear Batwoman.
Charlie: [...]]]></description>

		<title>Here We Snow Again (or, Snowverkill)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I do find it funny that when it snows an awful lot, my gut reaction (no pun intended) is to cook. I have actually run out of one size of plastic container, between all the leftover cream of cauliflower soup, chicken and oregano chili, and sun-dried tomato chicken that I&#8217;ve been making. (The latter two [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Am Half Sick of Snow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[They&#8217;re predicting snow again for the DC area, and a lot of it. After our mid-December snowpocalypse, I&#8217;ve noticed that there&#8217;s been a distinct shift in attitude when it comes to snow in this area. Normally those who hate snow curse bitterly at the mention of it, and others jump up and down with varying [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Real Differences Between Men and Women</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I went to the pool yesterday (at Spring Hill Rec Center in McLean), there were signs everywhere letting patrons know that for the day, the men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s locker rooms were swapping location. (My assumption is that a male maintenance crew needed to fix something in the women&#8217;s room, or something along those lines.) [...]]]></description>

		<title>What I Haven&#8217;t Seen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s Oscar season, and that means everyone starts looking at the Academy&#8217;s list to see what they already saw as well. I like to actually do the reverse; focus on the list and see what I didn&#8217;t see. There are usually one or two movies that I&#8217;ve been meaning to see by the time the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Schrödinger&#8217;s Kitchen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In a recent episode of This American Life (#399: Contents Unknown), one of the stories is about people who go to abandoned/seized storage locker auctions. There, they open up the locker (but no one gets to step inside) and after seeing the stacks of boxes and things contained, they&#8217;re auctioned off. You never know what [...]]]></description>

		<title>Overheard in the Post Office</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While waiting in line to buy stamps this morning, I watched the woman in front of me bring a large Flat Rate Priority Box up to the counter.
Postal Employee, weighing the box: Do you want to use a different box? This is so light it will actually cost less if we put it in another [...]]]></description>

		<title>So Much Awesomeness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I&#8217;m not even sure what to mention first, there&#8217;s such an astounding amount of greatness in this video from the 1974 Miss America pageant. The outfits? The feathered hair? The music? The song? The dancers? (Oh god, the dancers.) Or the fact that Miss Michigan is almost certainly a man???
Seriously, I think I could watch [...]]]></description>
