		<title>Perfection, Practice, and Publication</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am the type of person who does not like to release something until it is finished and perfect. In my area of expertise, where I am very efficient, this can be an advantage. I work fast enough and well enough to get things done and polished to a level that satisfies my perfectionism. In [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trigger Thumb</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the last two to three weeks I have been experiencing occasional, mild pain in my left thumb. It felt like a pulled muscle of tendon, no tingling or numbness, so I mentally ruled out carpal tunnel syndrome.

		<title>Emulating Jaco</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today I have decided to learn everything on Jaco&#8217;s self-titled solo debut CD. That is a pretty large goal, and I know I will not be able to go through it as fast as I would like. Jaco&#8217;s music is some of my favourite music, all genres and artists considered. His playing has always drawn [...]]]></description>

		<title>Installing ZenWalk 6.2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have run a GNU/Linux system as my main operating system for a little while now. I started on Red Hat 6 back in &#8217;99, but since then I&#8217;ve used Debian, Slackware, DSL, Knoppix, and others at various points. The latest has been Ubuntu. I picked up 7.04 and have been pretty satisfied since then. [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Full Day in Paris</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am sitting here after a long day in Paris. If you will excuse my indulgence, I want to write down what happened today.  It was a fun, exhausting, rewarding day. I warn you, this is a bit long. A Stranger in a Strange Land Monday morning I flew out of Austin headed to Paris [...]]]></description>

		<title>On Love: What is Love?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Love cannot be defined in one thought. I will attempt several, each of which I believe capture some of the essence of what true love is. First and foremost, however, true love is a commitment.]]></description>

		<title>First Post! Or: Why Is This Here?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It seems fitting to me that the first entry in my blog is a justification of its existence. After all, the thought that my words deserve their own shrine on the Internet feels rather arrogant. However, I think there are many good reasons to blog on a semi-regular basis. Let me show you. I have [...]]]></description>
