		<title>A self-aware exercise in metablogging</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been thinking for a couple weeks now that it&#8217;s long past time I put wrote another post on Blog Ing. It may be long past time&#8230;but this is not that time. Ha!
Uh&#8230;yeah. I suck. And like most things in the blogosphere it was painfully obvious long before I got around to saying it in some lame [...]]]></description>

		<title>Vive le difference</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve been watching the Star Wars saga here at the domicile de Ing. It&#8217;s the kids&#8217; first encounter not only with the original trilogy, but also the second (inferior) set. It&#8217;s been a decade since I last saw the movies, so they&#8217;re kind of new to me, too. It&#8217;s been a real kick watching the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Words not dead</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By chance tonight, I read these two poems one after the other, randomly leafing through a little book (&#8221;30 Timeless Poems&#8221;) I found on the Young Lad&#8217;s nightstand.
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;
A word is dead
When it is said,
Some say.
I say it just
Begins to live
That day.
Emily Dickinson, &#8220;A Word Is Dead&#8221;
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;
I, too, sing America.
I am the darker brother.
They send me [...]]]></description>

		<title>Page Four?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I came across a writing program I hadn&#8217;t heard of before: Page Four.
After skimming through the website, I&#8217;m thinking this could be a nifty program indeed. It&#8217;s billed as &#8220;a tabbed word processor, outliner, and organizer for writers.&#8221;
To me, it sounds sort of like Liquid Story Binder lite &#8212; which could be a very [...]]]></description>

		<title>Possession and the last tenth of the law</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I heard somebody recite the old &#8220;possession is 9/10 of the law&#8221; saying today. Just in passing, but it got me thinking.
What about the other tenth? I mean, 9/10 isn&#8217;t a done deal.
Maybe the last tenth involves somebody with money a really, really good lawyer. Or somebody with a gun. Or somebody with both.
And what [...]]]></description>

		<title>All good things must end?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of changes to ol&#8217; Blog Ing&#8230;
All the links that go someplace other than my domain and website are now in Sidebar #2 on the far right. And the Pandora widget, which used to occupy that space, is no more.
It&#8217;s a bit like the end of an era. Things is different all over.
I don&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bringing bloated textbooks to justice</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A follow-up to my &#8220;Roots&#8221; post&#8230;
The hefty lit-studies compendium that defeated my newly acquired .22 rifle, stopping the bullet just short of halfway through, has been vanquished.
My even more newly acquired 30/30 (or is it .30-.30?) blew 3 hefty holes right through it at about 60 yards. That book is about as thick as the [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Spartans are back</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just wanted to let you all know that it is now proven fact: the ancient Greeks are the deadliest warriors of all.
Ha!
Well, that&#8217;s what Spike TV&#8217;s Deadliest Warrior show says (minus the &#8220;ha!&#8221; part).
It&#8217;s not new news by now (the show aired a good 3+ weeks ago, I think), but since I said during season [...]]]></description>

		<title>Roots</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of weeks ago, while the kids were at the local game store playing in their weekly Saturday Pokemon league, I decided to kill some time by going to a local store &#8212; an independent regional outfit that seems to have a little bit of everything, but specializes in woodworking tools, hunting, and outdoor [...]]]></description>

		<title>Engage the kill switch and bury the dead</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thought I&#8217;d do a quick (but not necessarily brief) post about some music that&#8217;s kicking my butt right now.
For a long time now, I&#8217;ve been searching for bands that have found what I believe is the holy grail of heavy metal: the perfect combination of heavy riffage, melody, aggression, and serious musical chops.
In the process [...]]]></description>
