		<description><![CDATA[Celebrities and wine are in the news recently, but is it a new thing? Is it even a thing, for that matter?

		<description><![CDATA[There is a listlessness that comes over me in January as I am finally clear of all the best-of and worst-of lists that crowd my rss and social media feeds at the end of the year. One list did have a winning suggestion though – banishing the phrase "bucket list."]]></description>

I was feeling a bit under the weather and they ended up in the bag with some jarred hot and sour soup and frozen garlic bread. I mustered the restraint necessary to wait until dessert before opening them.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At various times during the construction of a new tune, I play a little home version of the David Letterman segment "Is this anything?" and the time has certainly come for "They Want Subways." It is, much like the Toronto Transit System, a work in progress, but as I haven't shared any music with you in some time, I thought I’d give you a preview.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back in my agency days I had a client whose in-house design team was responsible for laying down the law regarding their online brand standards. It is of course right that they should take ownership of their brand. One of their laws, however, was that all headlines on their website should be in title case. Allow me to explain why this is a bad idea.]]></description>
