		<description><![CDATA[Remember those Lincoln Logs you had when you were a kid? They came in all different sizes and sometimes they gave you a splinter, but most of the time they gave you a nice little log home for your G.I. Joes or Ninja Turtles. Now, it probably took you 15-20 minutes to get the log [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve seen so many awful restaurant sites when trying to find a place to go eat. Even scouring through the many sites of restaurants featured on Food Network&#8217;s Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives I had a hard time finding just a handful of well-designed sites. I&#8217;m not sure who is putting these sites together but they [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, it&#8217;s taken a while, but the redesign is finally up. What do you think? Leave your thoughts and feedback in the comments.
Now that the site design is up I hope to have posts more frequently. In fact, there&#8217;s one that should be up either tonight or tomorrow.
