		<title>Amazon DRM-free MP3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Amazon is really putting some effort into making DRM-free MP3s commercially viable. They have a &#8220;Five for five Friday&#8221; deal where five albums are $5 each. That&#8217;s not bad at all. You might consider checking them out.

		<title>Drug testing should be illegal!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am so sick of being treated like a criminal, being humiliated and having my most intimate personal life violated, every time I apply for a job. Twenty, or even ten, years ago, the employers who considered it their right to humiliate potential employees were the exception. I could, and did, tell them that no [...]]]></description>

		<title>Peter O&#8217;Toole is cool</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Peter O&#8217;Toole is just so cool. I just found out that he has written two books (autobiographies, both), and is in the process of writing a third. I intend to read them. I will probably have to go to a library: they appear to be both out of print and expensive.
