		<description><![CDATA[I found this story here: http://movies.yahoo.com/news/movies.reuters.com-fox-adapt-9yearold39s-selfhelp-book-reuters
 
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) &#8211; Fox is ready to take advice from a 9-year-old.
 
The studio has acquired the film rights to &#8220;How to Talk to Girls,&#8221; a cute 46-page self-help tome written by Alec Greven, a Colorado fourth-grader.

		<title>Sleep</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sleep is a good thing. For real.
 
I&#8217;ve gotten so much sleep this weekend, it&#8217;s just beautiful. I slept long Friday night, took a nap Saturday afternoon, slept well Saturday night, then took another nap this afternoon.
 
I think it&#8217;s because my back feels much more aligned than usual, so I&#8217;m more comfortable.
 
I&#8217;m gonna be so spoiled. [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=soapboxsoliloquies.wordpress.com&blog=3987173&post=97&subd=soapboxsoliloquies&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Two Lights</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I found this tribute to our soldiers in Iraq on Youtube this morning&#8230;really good. Enjoy this and&#8230;thank you.
 

&#8220;Two Lights&#8221;
Five for Fighting
What is courage
Is it brave
What are lions
I&#8217;ve only seen them in parades
How is love supposed to read
In a footnote of history
What&#8217;s a tap on your shoulder
That you&#8217;re afraid to look over
A soldier&#8217;s down in a [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=soapboxsoliloquies.wordpress.com&blog=3987173&post=93&subd=soapboxsoliloquies&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>How They Play Basketball</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Being rather bookish my entire life, the first basketball game I ever witnessed in its entirety came last winter, in my sophomore year of college. At this game, however, I, being the sharp one that I am, figured out exactly how they play basketball (Note: this post may eventually be followed by posts on other [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=soapboxsoliloquies.wordpress.com&blog=3987173&post=89&subd=soapboxsoliloquies&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Cooler King, age 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I work at a preschool in the afternoons, and this has led me a conclusion:
 
The &#8220;time-out&#8221; system is flawed.
 
Shocker! Let me explain.
 
I work with the two-year-olds, which, in the afternoons, combine with the one-year-olds. So typically there are four or five kids in my room at the end of the day, ranging from just turned [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=soapboxsoliloquies.wordpress.com&blog=3987173&post=84&subd=soapboxsoliloquies&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>We Need to Reevalute US Involvement</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I found this on my friend C.J.&#8217;s Facebook&#8230;love it!
Every day there are news reports about more deaths. Every night on TV there are photos of death and destruction.
Why are we still there?
We occupied this land, which we had to take by force, but it causes us nothing but trouble.
Why are we still there?
