For the love of Pete...what is this all about?  It could be worse.  To the north of us they received 15 inches of snow on top of the 35 they received already
in the month of April.

PS...Our snow is all gone now.  It got all the way up to 44 degrees later in the day so it melted.</p> ]]></description>

retrospective after his wife passed away a while back.  I haven&#39;t checked the authenticity, but they are interesting remarks anyway.  - Rich

			<description><![CDATA[ As you may or may not know the Clinton&#39;s &quot;Blessed&quot; Clear Lake, IA by attending out parade.  I thought it would be kinda neat, be able to see a
former president fairly close.  The problems started even before the parade even got moving.  One of the local VFW&#39;s boycotted because the Secret Service
wouldn&#39;t allow them to fire their rifles as they do every year in the parade.  Minor bump, I can live with that.  It was kinda cool to see Bill walk past
and wave at people etc.... ]]></description>

			<link>http://hondashadowacetourer.yuku.com/topic/6989/t/Great-pizza-in-Denver-area-.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ Sis and I were in Denver over the weekend.  We ran across a great pizza place (local chain) call Beau Jo&#39;s.  They had this creation called a Mountain
Pizza.  The crust was huge!  The &quot;trick&quot; there was to eat the slice of pizza, leaving the crust.  Then on each table they have a bottle of honey,
that you put on the crust and eat it that way.
<br>
It was fabulous.  When you get thru the Denver area, I recommend dropping in and trying it out.

manual settings, a light meter, fast shutter speed, short shutter lag and image stabilization. Regarding the optical zoom part of that my thinking is I am
happy with the resolution on the 3 mega-pixel cameras and a 6x optical at 3 MP is the same as a 3x optical, 2x digital at 6 MP. All of the features I want have
existed for the last... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ <p>Ever since my first stent in 1999, the doctors have been pushing drugs on me left and right. One that I&#39;ve been taking since 2000 was Altace. My doctor
at the time said a study had shown that taking 10mg of Altace daily helped prevent heart attacks. I followed his advice, started on 2.5mg daily, then up to 5mg
but when I tried to jump to 10mg my body revolted. Went back to 5mg and stayed there for 5-6 years.</p>
