		<title>Good News, Great News!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The good news is that I have just accepted a sales position with Myer&#8217;s Volkswagen.  For those of you that know me (or see me ranting and complaining on my Facebook page), this is a good thing.  I&#8217;ve always been a big fan of vee dubs&#8211;my first car was a &#8217;91 VW Fox two door&#8211;and [...]]]></description>

		<title>How Many Mixed Messages Does It Take To Screw In A Lightbulb?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[According to teh intrawebs, it&#8217;s a bad idea to send your dog mixed messages.  For example, a person who scolds their dog for begging at the table but still feeds it table scraps isn&#8217;t teaching the dog to stop begging. Most people who have been around dogs (read: everybody) should know this already.  I mean, [...]]]></description>

		<title>My First Attempt At Etsy!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Little known fact:  I really love making jam.  I don&#8217;t know why, it&#8217;s just the way it is.  So once I finally made a batch that I was willing to share, there was only one thing to do:  Sell it on Etsy! The only beef I have with Etsy&#8217;s other jam sellers is that few [...]]]></description>

		<title>$100 Million</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s occurred to me several times over the last few years that, even while Steven Harper rambles on and on about fiscal efficiency, his government hasn&#8217;t really spent my our money that wisely.  Actually, he&#8217;s spending it worse than a university student in the bar on shooter night. With that in mind, I&#8217;ve found a [...]]]></description>

		<title>SECOND!!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was re-visiting an old product idea this morning, when I found some great news:  A major multi-national company has invested untold millions into building a similar product. Most other people in the world would be beside themselves in my situation; that is, pondering ways to hatch your golden egg, when someone bigger, richer, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Standing On The Diving Board</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of my co-workers just recently began a part-time modelling career.  Knowing that I &#8220;dabble&#8221; in photography (ie, made a living from it for a very short while), she asked me to look over her portfolio and tell me what I thought. Now, being a former photo editor and current &#8220;two-way&#8221; photojournalist (which isn&#8217;t as [...]]]></description>

		<title>Be Considerate Of Your End User</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My infant son is starting to develop some independence, and so it&#8217;s time for him to learn to use a &#8220;sippy cup.&#8221;  We have been filling them with water and handing him the cups for about a month now, with limited success.  So, I finally decided to get serious with the issue, and sat him [...]]]></description>

		<title>Solving Problems Through Effective Chainsawing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;If you solve your problems with a chainsaw, you won&#8217;t have that problem again.&#8221;  &#8211;random internet quote Chainsaws are awesome.  Any schmuck can use one to savagely destroy something, yet talented artists can use one to create great works of art. The key thing is that whatever change you create with a chainsaw, it&#8217;s going [...]]]></description>

		<title>Seth Godin on Service Design</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Seth Godin is the original &#8220;marketing guru,&#8221; and one heck of a smart guy.  He also happens to blog about being creative, doing great work, and other things in management that aren&#8217;t normally associated with being in management. Seth&#8217;s blog post this morning on &#8220;Service Design&#8221; (similar to what I call Customer Design), really hit [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Silent Treatment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Do customers really need to have someone waiting on them hand and foot, in order to provide good customer service? Think about this:  You walk into your local Wal-mart to buy socks.  If you&#8217;re a guy, they&#8217;re in the menswear department, in the aisle closest to the main door.  I don&#8217;t know why they&#8217;re closer [...]]]></description>
