		<description><![CDATA[Don&#039;t want to get into the oil spill.  My anger spills way past the company and our leaders in Washington.  One said we should pray!  Are you kidding me???? Fix the problem, then sort out who pays for it.  This is a life-ending catastrophe, spare no expense to fix it-NOW.

Re: the writing class.  I have chosen to focus on Tim O&#039;Brien, although I have read the other required pieces.  I&#039;ve also begun Sandburg&#039;s Lincoln, the Prairie  Years.  It is outstanding, and I aspire to write like that.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I never take it lightly that those scales on great lumbering beasts, some who rose up to challenge the sun on leathery wings, are quilled feathers on the birds who bless us every year with their return.  PLease!  Don&#039;t anyone take that away from me!  What a dazzling concept, &quot;the black blood of dinasours.&quot;  Yup!!]]></description>
