		<description><![CDATA[I am in the advice-giving business. At least I am when I am worn down from 8 hours of listening and I want to have a five-minute private audience for my thoughts and opinions. I have discovered that most people are pretty bad at taking advice from me and probably from others as well. My [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I grew up in a home where alcohol ingestion was done compulsively. I discovered as a child that the drinking compulsion is an equal opportunity phenomenon – both my Mom and Dad were serious imbibers. I also learned that my parents and their friends formed an alcohol-conscious community where successful parties were granted the status [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This poem is by Hafez, a 14th C Persian poet (also called Hafiz, meaning someone who has memorized the Quran), well summarizes the spirit of Valentine&#8217;s merriment, perhaps from God&#8217;s viewpoint.

Watching the Sedins pass the puck, or my grandson laugh eating a mouthful of banana bread, or driving a Porsche 911 as fast as it should go &#8212; this is  the experience of excellence. But perfectionism robs the delight from a [...]]]></description>

Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they&#8217;re a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still, treat each guest honorably. He may be [...]]]></description>

Ignore the &#8220;call&#8221; of Groupon emails and craigslist bargains. Get home on time and not bump into a bicyclist. Find 2 minutes [...]]]></description>

A simple forward thrust and vertical pump is what I was taught by my Dad who told me “a good man has a good handshake.” I met a pastor with a “Baptist handshake” (I know that this is an unfair caricature) where my welcoming hand was [...]]]></description>

We’ve been fighting over that ever since and mostly in good humour. September is a time for promising. Much less glamourized than January, September is a time [...]]]></description>
