		<title>Down and out</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Obviously I haven&#8217;t written a new post lately.  My laptop is dying.  After being on for about 10 minutes, it shuts itself off.  I think it is overheating.  The fan runs constantly. Good times.

He found that every blue-eyed person descended from one person whose genes mutated some 6,000 to 10,000 years ago. Before that, everyone had brown eyes. Geneticist Hans Eiberg says that blue eyes occur when the human default - [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A few days ago, I came across a posting on Autoblog about a 1939 GM Futurliner that is up for sale on eBay.  I remember seeing one of these once but, for the life of me, I can&#8217;t remember where it was!
So, what is a Futurliner?
Futurliners are a group of 12 stylized buses designed [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brrrr!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Less than two weeks ago, I wrote how warm it was and how it felt like Spring. Well, that&#8217;s just a faded memory now!  It was 2°F when I woke up this morning and has warmed all the way up to 10°F at 4 pm. I guess it&#8217;s a good day to sit home [...]]]></description>
