		<description><![CDATA[
Back home from my weekend jaunt to Walt Disney World in Florida and here are some random thoughts on the experience.
I am a Disney agnostic which sets me apart from the fanatics and haters.  And me and Disney go way back.  Disneyland in California opened a month before I was born, and I grew up [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back in those long ago days of the 1980s I had reached a stage in my career where I enjoyed the services of a secretary.  It also so happens that she was the only person in the office who had a computer on her desk (it was a Wang).  My desk was equipped with a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Actually walks in the parks.  Thursday I hiked throughout the Magic Kingdom.  Friday I spent the day strolling the pleasant environs of Epcot.  And Saturday found my feet wandering around Hollywood Studios.  And when I wasn&#8217;t walking, I was standing in a long-ass line waiting to experience the most popular attractions.
I also stuck to the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What an exciting end to the day!  After a full day at Epcot we took a nap and then drove out to Downtown Disney to check out the nightlife.  Not having much life (night or otherwise) left in my tired legs we didn&#8217;t stay long.  Re-entering the resort I had to show my Disney ID, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A mother&#8217;s hug lasts long after she lets go.
Miss you mama.

I remember this poem for my distant past&#8230;
Somebody&#8217;s Mother
- Mary Dow Brine (1816-1913)

The woman was old and ragged and gray
And bent with the chill of the Winter&#8217;s day.
The street was wet with a recent snow
And the woman&#8217;s feet were aged and slow.
She stood at the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re talking about the 2009 film here, not the mastodon.  The movie came highly recommended by a university professor friend of mine who described it as being similar to Crash, only with a more international perspective.  And I think that&#8217;s a pretty fair description.  The film was produced in Sweden and features a wealthy American [...]]]></description>
