You get teased with the great features of the new product, realize your current one can't come close to handling those features, feel compelled to upgrade your hardware.  But what are my real alternatives?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No, not talkin bout Dokken&#8230; I&#8217;m talking about restaurant chains.  The big ones.  Have a discussion with 5 random people about their favorite restaurants and probably 3 of them will mention some watered down national chain.  Oh sure, it makes sense&#8230; They&#8217;re (generally) cheap, they&#8217;re safe, they allow white middle-class families to eat out without [...]]]></description>

Now, CBS has said they refuse to run this commercial during the Super Bowl.  That&#8217;s their decision and I feel they have a right to make it. However, what message does this send about CBS as a company?  They&#8217;re running the equally [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m currently finishing off a 6 pack of the Octoberfest from Central Waters Brewery.  It&#8217;s not my favorite Octoberfest (it&#8217;s kind of a foggy orange color, very light/thin with a toasty/nutty flavor &#8211; quite tasty but a departure from a typical Octoberfest beer), but I still rather like it.  I&#8217;ve had as many beers as [...]]]></description>

I live 5.5 [...]]]></description>
