		<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>Random Thoughts on Brewers Opening Day</title>

		<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>

It&#8217;s now time for the fun stuff &#8211; filling out your brackets. Like other years, I have created mine on ESPN.com.  Consider this your [...]]]></description>

		<title>DUFF – The Stay-at-home Film Festival.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s February.  It’s cold and snowy.  You really don’t want to be outside, and have no plans for this weekend.  If only there was something fun to do.

		<title>The One-Man Book Club</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of my goals for 2010 is to read more.  Since receiving my masters, I can count the number of books I have read for pleasure on two hands.  This year I want to get back in the reading habit…partially as a way to break some of the other bad habits I’ve developed. I am [...]]]></description>
