		<description><![CDATA[When I was little, someone showed me how to peel a banana the traditional way: from the top down.  Without ever challenging this concept, I&#8217;ve spent the last two decades struggling with stubborn bananas, hoping that each one I peeled would submit without strife.  Some would give in easy, but others would bruise and become [...]]]></description>

That means there are no registration lines and no bitchy ladies telling you the registration form hasn&#8217;t been filled out properly. There are no physical classrooms to show up late to, which means there are no boring lectures that you can fall [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s been a lot of speculation about the quality of single, college-aged girls in the Melbourne area. My hypothesis is simple: most of the good ones go out of town for college while the &#8220;less than desirables&#8221; stick around, making the dating scene a rough, contaminated quagmire for guys like me. To qualify my deduction, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When an organization causes feelings of negativity, people handle it in a number of different ways. Detachment is the one we&#8217;re going to focus on right now. Obviously, this is bad for both the organization and the individual, but the process of detachment is popular because it works really well in the short term. By [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ever since gas hit three dollars a gallon, I’ve been championing higher fuel prices as much as possible. Most people get pissy when I tell them that the primary reason I want gas prices to go higher is because “it will keep all the lowlifes off the road”. In fact, there are a multitude of [...]]]></description>
