		<description><![CDATA[What I am going to be talking about here is freedom. Not in the sense of Preserving Our Liberties and Fighting The Great Government Conspiracies, but the things that really impact our personal lives.
Not that government encroachment on our traditional liberty isn’t a worrying trend, and I may touch on it now and then, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think I have the site looking more or less how I want, so it&#8217;s time to start working on some content.
Right.  
See, we&#8217;ve got this little 14-month old ninja tornado rampaging about the house right now, teething like a whole pack of beavers on amphetamines (he&#8217;s getting in eight&#8211;eight&#8211;teeth all at once), and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It has been nearly 18 months now since my son was born and I am still trying to figure out what I want to do when I grow up.
I know what I am.  I&#8217;m a dad.  No job, no career, will ever be more important than that.  Unfortunately, while very rewarding in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We all start our lives with a very narrow focus.  First the womb, than which it doesn&#8217;t get much narrower.  Even after make it to the outside, our worlds are narrowly focused on eating and breathing.  We can&#8217;t even move, just lie there and hope nourishment is brought to us.

		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t had a job since the end of 2000, when the Dot-Com I was working for dropped dead by the side of the road.
That sounds a lot worse than it really is.  I have a long history of making money that doesn&#8217;t come from an employer and after a few months of trying [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I mentioned last week, the US economy seems to be headed for the crapper, and it is very possible that much of the developed world will be dragged down with it.  Many of you may be too young to have seen it before, but this sort of thing happens every now and then.

		<description><![CDATA[If you have read many of my past entries, you may have gotten the impression that I am in favor of living in a hovel, huddling in the dark around a bare lightbulb for light and warmth, and eating only room-temperature ramen noodles, while saving every penny for a possible future emergency.
Even my wife would [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My son has what many people would consider a surprising, and probably inappropriate, amount of decision-making power.  He is, as likely as not, the one to pick what we&#8217;re going to eat on Friday night.  He picks out nearly all of his own toy, and always has.  He has some say in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s that time of year again, when most people in the United States waste time resetting clocks.  I always get a reminder the day after the time switch; my two-year old son&#8217;s sleep schedule is thrown all out of whack.  He sleeps late and is cranky in the morning, and doesn&#8217;t want to [...]]]></description>

Those of you with children know what I&#8217;m talking about.  For the benefit of the rest, I [...]]]></description>
