		<description><![CDATA[Someone very dear to me asked a question recently that was probably only meant rhetorically, or anecdotally. It was about a dream. Specifically a dream wherein they were walking Aloysius &#8220;Snuffy&#8221; Snuffleupagus on a leash to the zoo, and as they walked, he shrank. It was a matter of great urgency, to get him to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Causes are not like jeans and hairdos. Other people will suffer, and they will suffer right now when you dive into the fad. It all begins when one person, then thousands point out that the emperor is not wearing any clothes. As people begin to come to terms with their role in the absurdity, they [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I met the 99% on Northgate for New Year&#8217;s. They were running from a fight they had picked in the bar. One of them, thinking he had made his escape and now manhandling a female companion, got arrested, but not before he squared up to the police. The individual was subdued, efficiently and professionally. Then [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s a Saturday and my wife was at her school for their Science Fair. Leaving for it this morning while the rest of us slept in, she wrote a note saying how sorry she was to be gone and suggesting that we visit. And we did, our daughter and I. In her classroom, among the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I was young, even my loquacious father would grow weary of my talking. And then sometimes it was out of empathy for my mother&#8217;s desperation for brevity that he would try his hand at &#8220;informing my presentation.&#8221; He&#8217;d say what his dad had said to him: You have two ears and one mouth.

		<description><![CDATA[Months ago, a very close friend passed away. I&#8217;d like to tell you about him for he was truly a great man, but I&#8217;m still wrapping my mind around it. I can tell you that, true to form, he was playing a game (very seriously, I&#8217;m sure) when he had his heart attack. His wife [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After an hour of meticulous mapping, I&#8217;m almost ready take a brand-new 40-mile ride. Then I notice that 4 blocks are on MLK and there&#8217;s nothing I can do about it. It&#8217;s just 4 blocks out of 40 miles, right? So what? Another route, that&#8217;s what. I&#8217;d sooner do all 40 miles on a one-lane [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last night, for the first time in school history, Texas A&#038;M Women&#8217;s Basketball brought home a National Championship. I was unable to watch, forgoing television this Lent, so I had to rely on my wife (herself a former basketball stud) for play-by-play in the waning minutes of the game. She was network-caliber, by the way&#8230; [...]]]></description>
