		<description><![CDATA[Hey, man, I can understand you wanting to pull out in front of a bicyclist. They do it to you all the time. Seems only fair.
But pulling out in front of a cyclist when it is fifty-five degrees, raining, and the sky is fraught with enough wind to knock a Geo Metro off the freeway? [...]

		<description><![CDATA[At long last, here is the list of the Hottest Remixes of 2009. How was this list made? Songs were judged by their propensity for eliciting ass-shaking, uncontrollable head-bobbing and shout outs to your deity of choice. I narrowed further by including only remixes, thus no mashups or straight-out hot dance songs. Also, every song was to the best of my research actually produced in 2009...since you can't exactly look this stuff up on Amazon. Final judging was done by listening to the list backwards to ensure that each song is indeed just that much finer than the last. This is an exercise that is highly recommended.

While many will bravely take their birthday spankings, no secular ritual seems to incite more whining than that of the New Year&#8217;s Resolution. Those who do not participate do so with scorn and derision, you can almost see the spit fly from their lips with their ready quip about why they are better than such [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Much excitement today surrounds Firefox's fifth birthday. We're reminded how this product that seems indispensable to us today didn't even exist in 2004. Firefox usage is a clear line that separates the old fogies and Luddites from the young, hip and with it. Indeed I can't even imagine who these  sixty percent are that still uses Internet Explorer—perhaps people so behind they don't know what a web browser is, and therefore haven't figured out you can use a different one? 

Most of us have experienced the frustration of trying to convince someone that it really is worth the five minutes it takes to download and install Firefox because the features it provides will improve your life on a daily basis. I want you to take a moment to dwell on this feeling, until your brow is furrowed in relived vexation. I'm asking this, dear reader, because in moments you're going to do the same thing to me.
