		<description><![CDATA[D and I haven&#8217;t been to a Lolla since &#8217;05. That was the year Perry Farrell first brought his music festival back from the ashes and made it a single city, multiple day, multiple stage, show. When Depeche Mode showed up on this year&#8217;s lineup (and not making a single other stop anywhere in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not too long ago I moved my former PC of greatness down to its destined home, the basement AV rack. That was after a reconfiguration to Windows 7 RC and the addition of a spiffy new Blu-Ray (BD) drive and IR receiver.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had a Logitech G7 wireless mouse for about 3 and a half years. While every other piece of my gaming rig has been replaced and upgraded, I still am lovin this mouse.
