		<title>Celebrating the Master of Suspense</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today is National Alfred Hitchcock Day and if that isn&#8217;t cause for celebration, I don&#8217;t know what is.  We all have our personal favorites &#8212; mine are The Birds, Dial M for Murder, Rear Window, North by Northwest, Shadow of a Doubt and Notorious.  But honestly, I&#8217;ve never seen a movie of his that I didn&#8217;t like &#8212; and I&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

		<title>Redefining Weird</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No doubt about it, the world (and its population) grows weirder with every passing day.  I&#8217;m not sure what&#8217;s the cause.  Chemicals in the food?  An excess of stress?  Are cell phones rotting our grey matter?  Do we have vitamin deficiencies?  Have we watched too much TV, believed the nonsense we&#8217;ve seen and turned our minds into mush?   Is fluorescent lighting making [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Death of Common Knowledge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I read the other day that the American Academy of Pediatrics is throwing its weight around to get the federal government to mandate warning labels on foods that pose a choking hazard to small children.  The AAP also is lobbying for hot dogs to be re-designed for safe kid consumption and for the FDA to [...]]]></description>

		<title>From My Window on the World</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, actually it&#8217;s not a view from my window.  It&#8217;s from my patio.  Even better than a window for neighborhood observation&#8230;more up-close-and-personal, you know.
As I&#8217;ve mentioned in other posts, I moved last September to a townhouse-style complex in the Raleigh area from an old house on 2 acres at the coast.  I don&#8217;t really miss the place because maintenance and upkeep [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Man Behind the Curtain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently, someone who&#8217;d read my Facebook page and blog asked me, &#8220;Are you religious?&#8221; 
Well, there&#8217;s nothing much on Facebook to indicate my beliefs, such as they may or may not be.  For my profile, under the &#8220;Religion&#8221; category, I put &#8220;Eclectic.&#8221;  I write friends who are going through a hard time that I will pray for them &#8212; and [...]]]></description>
