		<description><![CDATA[Joan Sydney&#8217;s son Tony Braxton-Smith, who is the CEO of Great Southern Railway, was featured on the first episode of the second season of Undercover Boss Australia, which aired on September 12, 2011.

		<title>Some day this site will reach the top of the &#8220;to do&#8221; list</title>
		<description><![CDATA[That day isn&#8217;t today, unfortunately. But hopefully soon. (I&#8217;m decluttering and part of the decluttering is getting rid of a load of notes and papers I have related to the updates for this site. I can&#8217;t throw them out because I need to transfer the information on them to the site and I can&#8217;t finish [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sometimes life hits you</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sorry for long absence. And so much for a speedy site redesign. Well, that&#8217;s pretty typical for me, as you probably already realize &#8212; I have a very short attention span, it seems and I&#8217;m easily distr&#8230;.ooo, shiny. Family troubles have been keeping me away. My mother was diagnosed with her third bout of cancer [...]]]></description>

		<title>The best laid plans</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, how&#8217;s the site update going? It&#8217;s going. Slowly, but it&#8217;s going. I&#8217;d estimate that it&#8217;s about 40% done right now, but that clearly means I won&#8217;t be unveiling it this long weekend. The problem is that I keep getting sidetracked by things I want to change as I&#8217;m trying to port the information over [...]]]></description>

		<title>Brian&#8217;s controversial ad</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Per Bedroom ad ruled offensive to men (The Age, May 27, 2009), the Advertising Standards Bureau has forced an Advanced Medical Institute commercial, which featured Brian Wenzel as a police man in a bedroom telling the man in the bed he won&#8217;t ticket him for speed if he gets help for his problem, to be [...]]]></description>

		<title>What&#8217;s on your wishlist?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What will updating the site include? New site design (throughout the entire site, with all existing pages either converted or removed if no longer in use), using Joomla. Existing pages will be converted and cleaned up (possibly even rewritten). Pages that are no longer in use (such as the webrings page) will be removed. All [...]]]></description>

		<title>If you wait long enough&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;you don&#8217;t have to finish anything. Such has been my history with redesigning this site. Long before I ever complete a redesign, I either get bored with the new look, tired of the sheer amount of work involved, or sidetracked by other things. So, here we are. This site redesign has been taking so freaking [...]]]></description>

		<title>Greedy or ignorant?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Periodically, I come across auctions on eBay in which the sellers are being either extraordinarily greedy or incredibly ignorant of the price points of the items they&#8217;re selling. Someone is currently selling a collection of A Country Practice articles for $199.99 AUD. Most of the other items they&#8217;re selling are either auctions with $0.95 starting [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reminiscing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Went looking today to see if the old Delphi forum I&#8217;d created was still there. It is. Hasn&#8217;t been touched really since about 2002 or so &#8212; hasn&#8217;t been in active use since 2001-ish. But it&#8217;s all still there. What a blast from the past. You want to know about the original core group of [...]]]></description>

		<title>She lives!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After a (long overdue) kick in the butt e-mail yesterday (thanks, Ben), I went looking at the site. It&#8217;s been a year since I did more than update the DVD stuff. I haven&#8217;t even really looked at it since about November 2007. Blog: I can&#8217;t for the life of me remember the login details for [...]]]></description>
