		<title>Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, it looks like 2008 is going to be as rife with change as 2007 was.  I certainly hope the end of 2008 equates to relative stability and prosperity, but only time will tell.  I can&#8217;t even comment on most of these changes because I honestly don&#8217;t know what most of them are [...]]]></description>

		<title>Predictable Like The Weather</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Pretty much as soon as I made that last post about the winter snow, the rain came to wash it all away (to prove me wrong, I presume).  Since then we have seen many signals of Spring, including sunshine, plant growth and people wearing t-shirts in 40 degree weather.  It is almost like [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cabin Fever Anyone?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here I am relaxing by the fireplace and watching the lovely snow fall. 

When I was interviewing last September, they told me about the &#8220;mild&#8221; winters in North Idaho.  When I arrived in November, it was only a matter of days before the snow began falling.  Since December, there has not been a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chocolate Cherry Bagel</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Why am I posting pictures of frightening looking turds on my weblog?  Ha-HA!  I am not!!  That, my friends, is the world&#8217;s greatest culinary creation &#8212; the Chocolate Cherry Bagel !!!
In Moscow, we have this truly fantastic bread and pastry shop which goes by the moniker of Wheatberries Bake Shop.  You [...]]]></description>

		<title>GIAC Rising</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The certificate granting branch of the SANS Institute, GIAC, just reached two important milestones.  The first one was attaining ISO certification, which I&#8217;m not sure about, but I think it means that if an airline pilot has a heart attack and they need someone to fill in, then they will let me safely land [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tragistrophic Leopard Upgrade</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The advertisement from Apple says &#8220;So advanced, it practically installs itself.&#8221;  What a load of garbage!  Here is the story of my nightmarish upgrade to Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). 
Before we even begin, I have to own up to my culpability for not ensuring I had full and complete system backups before [...]]]></description>

		<title>Insta-Blizzards</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So one of the coolest things (at least to me) about North Idaho is that in a matter of minutes an enormous snow storm can whip up out of nowhere &#8212; even at times when no snow is predicted.  This happened two weeks ago when I went into Wal*Mart and there was no snow, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Got Me Some Netflix</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, I had been putting off getting a Netflix account for several years now, but that wind of change was blowin&#8217; through 2008 and convinced me to commit up to $17 per month to another online merchant.  They say the first two weeks are free&#8230;


Now I fully expect to become a couch-ridden blob, unable [...]]]></description>

		<title>Got My Christmas Wish</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, it wasn&#8217;t until 7:00 PM tonight, but it finally started snowing!  It has been coming down for the last hour or so and since the temps are below 30 it should stick around for a while.  Now if it would just snow hard for the next 24 to 48 hours, then I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Please Let It Snow For Christmas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;if only in my dreams!  
Actually, we have four solid days of snow predicted, so I hope at least a few flakes fall.  I am ready to see more Winter Wonderland.  
Merry Christmas, all!
