		<title>New Zealand &#8211; Auckland</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This post is part of a continuing recollection of our trip to Aotearoa New Zealand &#8211; specifically, our time in and around Auckland on the north island.
If you wish, you can start from the beginning.

Day 1
Upon awakening some time around 10 AM, we got our first view of Auckland from our hotel room. It looked [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a while since I&#8217;ve posted anything &#8211; a combination of little of interest to talk about and a migration toward the use of Twitter for many of my thoughts (not that it is really a good alternative). I&#8217;ve also been focusing more of my free time on my interest in photography.
I did recently [...]]]></description>

		<title>UPS Tracking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Anyone else find this UPS tracking as confusing (and amusing) as I?
For the uninitiated, that &#8220;Ontario, CA, US&#8221; is the city of Ontario here in California &#8211; literally the next city over, and pretty much the main land shipping hub for the region.

		<title>Road Trip &#8211; Yosemite</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yosemite National Park is probably one of the most photographed locations on Earth &#8211; and for good reason. I&#8217;ve gone camping, driven through the mountains, etc. plenty, but while I&#8217;ve seen many beautiful natural scenes I&#8217;ve never seen anything like Yosemite first-hand.
That&#8217;s not to say I wasn&#8217;t familiar with what Yosemite had to offer a [...]]]></description>

		<title>LittleBigPlanet Delayed</title>
		<description><![CDATA[LittleBigPlanet has been delayed a week. Apparently, the soundtrack contains a song that dares to quote a couple of lines from the Qur&#8217;an (presumably Sony is trying to avoid death threats and the like). I really wish companies would stop caring so much what a relative handful of reactionary ideologues think about them or their [...]]]></description>

		<title>Road Trip &#8211; Mono Lake</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Those following me on Twitter may have noticed that I&#8217;ve been on a road trip from home in southern California to Washington State.
This is a trip that I&#8217;ve done many times but &#8211; due to my (as of October 10th) lack of a job and the fact that I would be traveling alone &#8211; I [...]]]></description>

		<title>House votes to bail out Wall Street</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As expected, the House passed the revised bail-out Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 bill &#8211; after it had been laden with additional pork and other &#8220;incentives&#8221; &#8211; by a wide margin, 263 for and 171 against.
Of course, the actual reasons why so many people opposed the bill &#8211; the fact that it rewarded bad [...]]]></description>

		<title>Apple drops NDA</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In an uncharacteristic display of good sense (by current standards), Apple has finally decided to drop the non-disclosure clause from the iPhone developer agreement, claiming that it was intended to prevent competitors from ripping them off (which makes no sense &#8211; no NDA is going to prevent that months after a product&#8217;s release &#8211; but [...]]]></description>

		<title>House votes no on bail-out&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In what was an incredibly narrow vote, the House voted against filling the coffers of irresponsible Wall Street firms to a tune of $700 billion tax-payer provided dollars.
As much as I&#8217;d like to celebrate this news, the sad fact is that it&#8217;s likely that a slightly amended version of the bill will be put up [...]]]></description>

		<title>So, I quit my job&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some posts on Twitter a few weeks back may have clued some in that something was afoot, but I wasn&#8217;t really prepared to make public note of it until now.
After 9 and a half years working at DreamHost, I have decided to leave (effective October 10th). This was due to a handful of reasons, but [...]]]></description>
