		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m a big user of search engines.  Despite my grumblings and pontifications on here about Google, I still use them the most because they&#8217;re still the best out there.  I hope that Bing &#8211; despite the daft name &#8211; will one day come to challenge Google, but until then, I just Google.  It&#8217;s been interesting [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of my favourite films is &#8216;The Fisher King&#8217; - one of the most haunting scenes in it is where Radio &#8216;Shock Jock&#8217; Jack Lucas repeats the words &#8216;Forgive me&#8217; from a TV script he is hoping to star in, whilst, unbeknown to him, thoughtless comments made by himon his radio show have driven a [...]]]></description>
