		<description><![CDATA[I wrote this message before leaving and set a delayed publish date. By now I should be at my destination enjoying the sunshine.

I&#8217;m not a particularly skilled orator and I&#8217;m not known for my works of prose, but I&#8217;ve experienced much in my life and I&#8217;d like to pass on a few things I&#8217;ve learned.

A few moments ago I witnessed stupidity on television.  The local news was coving a story about the smoking ban in Monona.  The Mayor of Monona agreed to a compromise with a special interest group about moving up the start date of the smoking ban.  A committee and the council must approve [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m now down to the last week before I leave.  In approximately 172 hours I&#8217;ll be on my way.  There&#8217;s so much left to do.  I just need to keep my wits about me so I don&#8217;t forget something important.  I picked up a supply of tea that should last the [...]]]></description>

Lately I&#8217;ve been watching a lot of the television show Eli Stone.  The show has an interesting concept to say the least.  I don&#8217;t consider myself spiritual, but I believe there is an unknowable reason why we must be good to each other.  It would be nice if we were guided by [...]]]></description>

There was an massive earthquake in China.  Hillary still won&#8217;t quit.  The Sex in the City movie premiered in London.  A frat house here in Madison burned down.  Food prices are high, which some people blame on biofuel.  I guess it&#8217;s too difficult for some people to understand that in [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s Friday night and since I have to work early tomorrow morning, I&#8217;ve come home early.  Life can be a thrill sometimes.  I don&#8217;t want to go to bed.  I probably won&#8217;t be able to fall asleep anyways.  There are many things I have the urge to do, but don&#8217;t dare. [...]]]></description>

There&#8217;s supposed to be isolated thunderstorms all day.  All I know is it looks gloomy out there.  I saw lightning flash and heard the thunder crack earlier this morning.  Right on queue a sudden shower came down.
When I was a kid I used to love the thunderstorms that would appear out of [...]]]></description>

Down in Racine an Alderman is working to make it legal for retired police officers to carry a concealed weapon.  Am I missing something here?  What makes a RETIRED police officer deserving to carry a concealed weapon when no other member of the public can?
For the record I am for a concealed weapon [...]]]></description>
