		<title>The folly of Sharkscope.com</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks ago, I sat at a (virtual) table with Keith Sexton in a HORSE tournament.
I won.
I didn&#8217;t just beat him.  I took control of the table and bluffed him out of at least three pots.  I also beat everyone else at that table.  I wasn&#8217;t prepared for the fame/notoriety I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Poker 101</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I started this blog, the motto here was &#8220;Poker is life.  Life is poker.&#8221;  There&#8217;s great wisdom in that so I&#8217;m changing it back.  I&#8217;m pretty sure I said here in the past that if you don&#8217;t know poker, you&#8217;re probably not very good at life.  Or something like that.

		<title>Overrun with women</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My bathroom reeks of fruitiness.  There are multiple fluffy robes hanging on the back of my bathroom door.  I have plants hanging - hanging! - on my porch.  There&#8217;s stuff in my shower that I can&#8217;t even identify - and a lot of it.  There are curtains now and everything has [...]]]></description>

		<title>Living a dream</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m living a dream.
I mean that literally.  Like many people, I&#8217;ve thrown that phrase around loosely at times.  This time I&#8217;m not using it as a rhetorical device.  It&#8217;s not a euphemism, a metaphor, a figure of speech or hyperbole.
I mean it in the sense that the last couple of mornings I&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

		<title>Granted.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been listening to this song over and over tonight.  It&#8217;s amazingly appropriate for my current situation and - no kiddin&#8217; - I&#8217;ve had it for months in my iTunes library and had never listened to it once until I stumbled across it accidentally tonight.
I don&#8217;t know how The Red Rocker does it; it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Intelligence vs. Wisdom</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m a smart guy.  I&#8217;m smarter than most.  Usually, I&#8217;m the smartest person in the room.  It&#8217;s awkward and difficult most of the time.  For the most part I&#8217;ve gotten used to it and learned to live with it.
This blog attracts people that are smarter than average.  I love that. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Suspiciously quiet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve said nothing here recently and probably won&#8217;t soon.  There&#8217;s too much to say. Respect for the privacy of others prevents me from saying most of what I would like to.
I&#8217;ll tell you quickly that the legal conflict is over and I picked up my daughters last Tuesday morning. We&#8217;ve been home since Wednesday night. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Turned tables</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m currently fighting yet another legal battle. This time it&#8217;s in two states, a thousand miles apart, to get my children back from a kidnapper.  I offered visitation to which my children&#8217;s mother was not entitled and then gave her gas money to get home because she &#8220;didn&#8217;t budget for the horrible gas mileage&#8221; she [...]]]></description>

		<title>Welcome to the circus (where&#8217;s my bread?)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Do you really think these clowns have any clue how to &#8220;run a country?&#8221;
McCain&#8217;s no prize and I won&#8217;t be voting because there&#8217;s nobody to vote for, but I dare you to read all of this and then try to defend either the idea of democracy or that anybody that subscribes to it has any [...]]]></description>

		<title>Feminism writ large</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This would be funny if it weren&#8217;t about a contest for &#8220;leader of the free world.&#8221;
I&#8217;m no fan of feminism but I&#8217;m also no sexist.  I personally believe that women are inherently stronger then men in most ways and capable of almost anything. But I also believe that 40+ years of feminism in this [...]]]></description>
