		<title>Find the second Mars, and they both disappear</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Scientists produced a map of aurorae on Mars, which is apparently a pattern of ultraviolet light that&#8217;s created by the planet&#8217;s crustal rocks. Science Daily has a cool photo of it. But it, um, looks kind of familiar. Like the dragon tile on a mahjong board:

That&#8217;s just a screencap of mahjong and pasted the Science [...]]]></description>

		<title>Unfashionably late</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of guys from work and I went to a screening of The Wrestler, Darren Aronofsky&#8217;s fantastic new flick. Everyone met at the screening room, though, and I managed to write the address down incorrectly, so I spent the first half-hour running back and forth in Times Square, finally figuring out my error, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s peanut butter bouncy time</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was making myself a PB sandwich this afternoon, and accidentally dropped the jar on the floor. It hit, and an enormous glob of the stuff rocketed up out of the jar, and landed back up on the counter. Rubberyness: Probably not a quality I should be looking for in food.


But I had the sandwich [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;m back. And I&#8217;m buff.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Ok, I&#8217;m not buff at all. But I have news: I now work for Men&#8217;s Health, and I moved to New York two weeks ago. Hence the non-buffness: I&#8217;m totally new to the city and have spent the majority of my time orienting myself to the job, and so I&#8217;ve abandoned attempts at nutrition and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Paula Poundstone, I am not</title>
		<description><![CDATA[But I did submit myself to be a panelist on this week&#8217;s &#8220;News IQ Quiz,&#8221; a news quiz show on NECN that ran at 8 p.m. on Friday &#8212; which means I pity anyone who had nothing better to do than watch me. Here&#8217;s the first segment:

If you suffered through that and actually want more, [...]]]></description>

		<title>And it was easier to write than my last team name, &#8220;We Lost Almost All Our Money On Bear Stearns, And We&#8217;re Spending The Rest On Beer&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some friends and I played pub quiz tonight. Our team name: We&#8217;re Waving Right Now. Whenever the announcer listed off scores and read our team name, we waved.
Genius! I&#8217;m telling you: Interactive, innovative genius. That&#8217;s some out-of-the-box shit right there. We won third place, which means we got free Common Ground t-shirts. Because we&#8217;re innovative geniuses.

		<title>TC&#8217;s Lounge, where you drink with caution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On Friday afternoon, some co-workers and I gathered at a dive bar called TC&#8217;s Lounge for after-work drinks. We&#8217;d been talking about doing regular Friday drinks for a while, and thought, considering its quietness and proximity to our office, TC&#8217;s Lounge would be the perfect regular spot. And it would be, if it weren&#8217;t run by [...]]]></description>

		<title>I am a pretty boy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I got waxed. I got plucked. I got lots of expensive haircuts. And then I did amazingly silly photo shoot (see above, one of the shots that didn&#8217;t make the final cut), all for a story I did about local men&#8217;s salons in this month&#8217;s Boston mag.
Update: Matty in the Morning brought me in to talk [...]]]></description>

This sign spotted at the theater I went to see The Incredible Hulk at tonight. (It beat the purple pants off the last one.)
