		<title>Saying goodbye to MidwesternBoy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I started the website MidwesternBoy.com almost four years ago, it was my gateway to publish my thoughts as I began my journalism and writing career. It was a home for the countless articles I popped out for class. It was a place for me to publish pure Gonzo journalism and other stuff I thought [...]]]></description>

		<title>Random Thoughts from the Sunday Newspaper</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s been nearly two months since I last had a relaxing Sunday morning with coffee and a copy of the Wisconsin State Journal (WISJ).  Thus yesterday morning I decided to rectify that.  While flipping through my local Madison newspaper, I had a couple observations &#8211; some good and some just confusing. Masthead issues. Am I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reading &#8217;10 &#8211; Summer Reading</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Summer is over, and the days are getting shorter and colder.  Perfect weather to curl up by a fire with a good book.  Still, thanks to a series of entertaining reads, my summer productivity for at least two months was high. The lack of air conditioning and an extremely hot summer that made it just [...]]]></description>

		<title>Geek.Kon 2010 – 3.5 sessions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Madison’s own Geek.Kon celebrated its fourth anniversary this past weekend, with the motto “Bigger on the Inside.” The Marriot provided the Geek.Kon crowd with its largest space ever &#8211; 50,000 square feet. The difference was noticeable. The video game room and exhibition hall were not cramped as in previous years. There was plenty of seating [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Day in May &#8211; 2010 Photoblog</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last year, I was invited by friends to participate in a “Day in the Life” photo blog.  It was a fun experiment that spurned my interest in photography.  The results are available here. The offer was extended again this year, and initially I said no.  I have taken on a larger photo project in 2010 [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reading in 2010 – The good, the bad, the funny</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Winter is over and spring has arrived.  I admit I’m behind where I would like to be in regards to my New Years resolution to read 2 books per month, but not worried. Then again, if I were where I wanted to be, I would have already read 24 books this year. One internal debate [...]]]></description>

		<title>Random Thoughts on Brewers Opening Day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The smell of bratwursts and beer drifted through downtown Milwaukee today as the Milwaukee Brewers opened the season at Miller Park.  While I was not able to find a ticket for this traditional Milwaukee (and state) holiday, I watched and/or listed to the entire game.  The Brewers lost to the Colorado Rockies 5-3 , but [...]]]></description>

		<title>Script Frenzy – A New Challenge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Early in March I received an email from the people that run National Novel Writing Month, introducing me to a new challenge – Script Frenzy.  The idea is similar to NaNoWriMo – write a 100-page script during the month of April.  As a movie fanatic, I decided to give it some thought. With April being [...]]]></description>
