		<description><![CDATA[Like many of us on Twitter, I follow a number of Twitter users who post aphorisms, quotes, sayings, etc.  A sort of electronic review of the &#8216;Wisdom Literature&#8217; of the last 2000 years.  This can be pretty cool; I do wish that some folks would post their tweets across the day rather than in large [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earlier this week I commented on the words of John Healey, the Housing Minister who said that repossession is not always a bad thing.  As has been pointed out, the 46,000 people repossessed in the last year would probably disagree, and would no doubt like a word of apology from him.  You know, the &#8216;s&#8217; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On 29th December, 1170, four knights of King Henry 2nd killed Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, and thus created a martyr of a man who&#8217;s principles had forced him to behave in a manner that was anathema to his King and his one time friend.  It&#8217;s usually accepted that the King hadn&#8217;t actually ordered this assassination, [...]]]></description>
