		<title>A Reintroduction</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In life, it is always good to regularly take a long, hard, look at where you are, where you&#8217;ve been, and where you&#8217;re going. Regular re-evaluation of oneself is one of the common-sense keys to positive growth and self-knowledge.
Often, that leads to the realization of a bit of change. Other times it makes clear how [...]]]></description>

		<title>Time Warp</title>
		<description><![CDATA[New monthly bit here. Just a quick note catching up and looking ahead. A kind of regular check and balance to make sure things are moving in some direction that vaguely resembles &#8220;forward.&#8221;
Looking Back
OK, it&#8217;s been very quiet here. Mostly because the mundane world has kept me more than a little busy. There have been [...]]]></description>

		<title>Before Dawn</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The Winter Solstice once again finds me looking back on the past months during the wee hours of the night.
It just so happens that this late December, the world around me has been encased in a certain amount of snow and ice. Enough to disrupt pretty much everything in the region. I&#8217;ve actually never seen [...]]]></description>

		<title>No Nightmare Because of Christmas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
PC110022, originally uploaded by KierDuros.
When Tim Burton&#8217;s Nightmare Before Christmas hit the screens, it very quickly became one of my all-time favorite holiday films.
Mostly because it had my favorite holiday (Halloween, in case you can&#8217;t tell) blended in with the much more popular one.
Mostly, but not entirely. The movie (if you haven&#8217;t seen it) deals [...]]]></description>

		<title>Certified</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
As someone who stands outside of all the mainstream religious institutions, there are some things that, once upon a time, were kind of tricky to do without bending or breaking either one&#8217;s beliefs or the law.
Back in the early days of the World Wide Web, a group came along that made doing at least one [...]]]></description>

		<title>Baseline Readings</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Whenever I go into a new place for the first time, be it a public space or a private one, I like to get there before the big crowd shows up.
If at all possible, being there alone is preferable.
In that time, before the rolling froth of individuals churns through the aether, I can get what [...]]]></description>

		<title>Around and Back Again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just this past weekend, while on my way out of a party for a friend of mine, I was stopped by a lovely young woman.
&#8220;I know you,&#8221; she said.
&#8220;From where?&#8221; I was curious as I had noticed her a little while earlier and couldn&#8217;t shake the feeling that she seemed a little familiar.
&#8220;Probably from another [...]]]></description>

		<title>Another Try at Battlefield Psi</title>
		<description><![CDATA[According to a recent article in Wired Magazine, the Pentagon is once again throwing money at paranormal sounding research.
Unlike some previous attempts at battlefield psi ops, there is actual technology involved this time:
The project has three major goals, according to Darpa. First, try to map a person’s EEG patterns to his or her individual words. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Metaphysical Monday: Once Upon A Dream</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just a quick set of questions, spawned by a conversation had this weekend&#8230;
Lucid dreaming is something that I do on a semi-regular basis&#8211;either planned or unplanned.
Do you lucid dream?
Have you ever found yourself in a recursive dream, lucid or otherwise? (One where you &#8220;wake up&#8221; and then realize that, no, you&#8217;re still dreaming.)
Have you ever [...]]]></description>

		<title>Metaphysical Monday: A Second Look</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Every now and then, I run into an interesting problem: I don&#8217;t see people as they appear to everyone else.
Or, perhaps more specifically, I don&#8217;t perceive them the same way and that perception difference manifests in my mind processing the visual data differently.
This becomes most apparent when going through photos. I&#8217;ll see someone, recognize them [...]]]></description>
