		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s  the end of the Worlds as know it. Today started early. I set my alarm for 7am so that I could be to the site in plenty of time to see the opening ceremonies and the HOF induction. I caught the 49 bus to Fort Mason. This reminded me vividly how much nicer the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;I never was on the ProTour&#8221;* I haven&#8217;t even played in a GP. I played in a ton of small events at SuperStars/ChannelFireball, including a PTQ (if memory serves) and Regionals one year. I even top8ed a sealed 1K (or something similar). I was an FNM regular before moving to California, and am trying to [...]]]></description>

When I got my new DSi XL I noticed LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga and decided to try again. This time my experience is much better. I&#8217;m finishing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been playing with my new DSi XL for a few days and have some initial comments. I&#8217;ll go from good to bad. First, it&#8217;s way bigger than the DS Lite or DSi. I like that a lot. It&#8217;s not like I&#8217;ll be carrying it around in my back pocket anyway. It&#8217;s still small enough [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s once again time to upgrade my handheld gaming console. Mid 2005 I got a Gameboy Advance SP (GBA). Then, late in 2006, I upgraded to a DS Lite. I looked at the DSi when it came out but decided it wasn&#8217;t much of an upgrade for my needs. Certainly not like the GBA to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We celebrate Yule (winter solstice) rather than Christmas, so we do our gift giving 4 days before most of you. This has been a very Nintendo-heavy season. It&#8217;s hard to say what&#8217;s the coolest: the 1-up mushroom T, the DS homebrew hardware, or what&#8230;. But I think it&#8217;s between the Opera DS browser and the [...]]]></description>

The Wii is a beautiful piece of hardware in the same way that iMacs, PowerBooks, and iPods are. Sleek &#38; white, elegant &#38; minimalist. very nice. The controller and [...]]]></description>
