		<description><![CDATA[It turns out that St. Louis Cardinals&#8221; pitcher Josh Hancock had a blood alcohol level of 0.157, wasn&#8221;t wearing a seatbelt and may have been talking on his cellphone when he killed himself by slamming into the back of a tow truck going 68 miles per hour (in a 55 zone). That&#8221;s a whole lot [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The tornadoes that ripped through suburban Nashville Friday did some pretty bad damage &#8211; in my wife&#8221;s hometown and along a path near where just about all of her extended family lives. That big church that was &#8220;destroyed&#8221; (note to the news media &#8211; the church wasn&#8221;t destroyed; its face was just ripped off) is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The wife and I just watched WAL-MART: The High Cost of Low Prices, the much-acclaimed documentary about everybody&#8221;s favorite corporate bully. What a supreme waste of an opportunity. Heavy on emotion, light on facts and completely devoid of analysis, the film surely painted Wal-Mart as a bad player &#8211; and it is. The company uses [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Judging from my conversation with a good-ole-boy exterminator today, Georgia rednecks have mostly adjusted to using the word &#8220;blacks&#8221; &#8211; rather than their former chosen derogatory term &#8211; when talking about &#8220;all the blacks around here&#8221; with a complete stranger. However, they still don&#8221;t seem to have a problem using Asian slurs &#8211; such as [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It looks like the SEC (The Securities &#38; Exchange Commission, not the NCAA&#8221;s best conference) may push ahead with this plan to require &#8220;total cost&#8221; disclosures for public company executives. The idea here is that requiring public companies to declare a single, total compensation number for its executives will somehow keep executive pay in check. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On the eve of the BCS National Championship game, part of the ESPN establishment is actually recognizing today that USC will not be a &#8220;three-peat&#8221; champion if they beat Texas tomorrow night. &#8220;LSU won the title two years ago. It&#8221;s disingenuous, it&#8221;s cheap and it&#8221;s a marketing ploy to try to call this thing a [...]]]></description>
