		<title>How I Survived a Water Spill on my Laptop</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was bound to happen. Parking my laptop on the island in the kitchen with two boys under five precariously drinking out of open cups as we wean them from the sippy is an accident waiting to happen. So it was quite a surprise when I found myself spilling my very own glass of water [...]]]></description>

		<title>Recovering Digital Photos</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Everyone knows you should backup your precious digital pictures after you transfer them to your computer, but what happens if there is a problem in the camera itself?
I still had pictures from the holidays I hadn&#8217;t downloaded, so I wasn&#8217;t surprised when I got a &#8220;memory card full&#8221; message. I wasn&#8217;t near my computer, so [...]]]></description>

		<title>Don&#8217;t Drink the Water!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[..at least not from glasses in your hotel room. A secret camera operation revealed that none of the hotel chains investigated properly washed the room&#8217;s glasses. Yuck! The fancier hotels always have actual glasses, not plastic cups, in the bathroom and near the mini-bar. They simply rinsed the glasses out, perhaps used a dirty bath [...]]]></description>

		<title>Weather Report</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am continually amazed that people still watch the evening news to get the weather report. And the games the news team play with the audience &#8212; &#8220;Tomorrow, it may snow or hail fireballs.

		<title>Gender Prediction</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It seems that a favorite past-time of women is to predict the gender of unborn babies. There are all kinds of methods including the dangling of rings over the belly to Chinese birth charts using  age of mother and conception dates. Men don&#8217;t seem to partake in this game since it&#8217;s about as fun as [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rent Movies on your TiVo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With two little kids, we don&#8217;t go out to the movies much. It seems we don&#8217;t even get to watch TV that much either. Our TiVo has helped manage our TV watching, but even with the &#8220;Silver&#8221; cable package, there are very few good movies available to watch&#8211;unless you like &#8220;Mindhunters&#8221; as it has been on [...]]]></description>

		<title>9 Reasons not to Vacation on a Cruise Ship</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have never been on a cruise. Those years of watching The Love Boat on Friday nights simply never compelled me to try. As I got older, I heard stories of all the fun people had on cruises. Actually is was mostly about continually eating.
