		<title>On UFOs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So the History Channel of all places has been running shows on how Aliens have been visiting earth for a long time, and have contributed to our societies since we were apes, and yadda yadda.  The History Channel&#8217;s long slide into meaningless drivel aside, I wanted to just throw out some hard numbers about [...]]]></description>

		<title>On Prop 100</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So the ballot measure is done, and it passed by a huge margin.

I was really conflicted on this.  There are a lot of factors that go into making a decision about a tax that will take a billion dollars a year out of our state economy.  Especially in a time that our economy [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPad Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I bought an iPad on opening day.  As I said in my initial observations, I really needed to hold one, see it and feel it, before I could have a sense of whether I wanted one.

So I wandered down that Saturday afternoon to give one a shot.  I wanted to see 3 things: [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the past few days, Hillary Clinton and other senior administration members flew down to Mexico to work on &#8220;cartels vs. the military part II&#8221;.  A visit punctuated by 5 days of murders related to cartel violence.

A few years ago the US dedicated 1.3 Billion dollars to fighting the drug war in Mexico and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Poor People Didn&#8217;t Cause the Crash</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been 2 years now since wall street smashed our economy into a brick wall and like a lot of drunk drivers, amazingly the Banks walked away almost completely unscathed, while the rest of the passengers (us) have ended up in a 2 year coma from which we are just now emerging.

There&#8217;s been a lot [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mac OS X Bluetooth A2DP Sound Quality</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Have you bought a pair of bluetooth stereo headphones and paired them up to your Mac?

Have you noticed that they sound crappy and tinny?

There&#8217;s a reason!

Turns out that the default minimum quality in OS X is pretty low.  I guess the OS and the bluetooth device negotiate this, and if the device doesn&#8217;t provide [...]]]></description>

		<title>Amazon Kindle: The real review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[About a week before Christmas, I broke down and bought a kindle.  I had been using the iPhone kindle app for a couple of months, and had been teetering on the edge for a while.  Then the prices came down and it pushed me over.  I&#8217;ve now got a good 5 books [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPad observations</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We all know about the newest apple device by now, here are my impressions:

Big iPhone:
This was a really good decision on Apple&#8217;s part.  It would have been a major mistake to put the full version of Mac OS X on this machine.  It needs an OS that is rooted in the touch interface [...]]]></description>

		<title>Arizona 2010 State of the State address</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In case you didn&#8217;t know, Arizona&#8217;s leadership is completely fucked.  Since the whitehouse drafted our previous governor, Jan Brewer has stepped in to try and navigate the mess that is Arizona politics.  And it hasn&#8217;t gone all that well.  Since taking office, she&#8217;s been consistently in opposition to both parties in the [...]]]></description>
