		<title>Creative Mayhem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve all had the experience &#8211; a program crashes, customer service shuts off your internet instead of downgrading your cable, you can&#8217;t access your checking account. And, depending on temperment, circumstances, etc. we handle these situations with grace, aplomb, frustration, resignation or rage1.  Another response, of course, is humor.

		<title>The Beautiful Game</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The thundering, indomitable drone of vuvuzelas has dropped below the horizon, two hemispheres removed once more as the television cameras direct their gaze away from South Africa. Gone are the fever-dreams of Germans dancing the Brazilian samba, Dutchmen fortifying their goal with hammer and nails and a lion-maned Diego Forlan roaming the African Savannah in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cloud Searching for God</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;m a Googler, you&#8217;re a Googler, Conan&#8217;s a Googler, we get it&#8230; But here in Gibberish land we like to search about a bit too. One of my favorite non-googling sites was Clusty, a meta search engine by Vivisimo, Inc. that clustered results topically under headings &#8211; good for general concept searching and allowing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Zombies are all the rage these days. Don&#8217;t believe me? See for yourself. I generally ignore the mania for the undead, but in the realm of gaming I have, alas, succumbed.
