		<description><![CDATA[“He that is dead lives again.” The chanting wasn’t coming from a church, and it wasn’t for William Butler Yeats, although that statement applied to him was in fact true. William Butler Yeats was sitting on a park outside, relatively innocently, thinking that he had always believed that every two thousand years things came around [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[John The slick rushes down by the lake cut at his ankles as he runs, young and free. He’s young and he’s running, and he’s just done something bad. The moon fat as a orange air balloon grins in the sky, the chickens are in bed and he is not, and the night is deep. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Who’s winning? An extended family of four, on the way to the airport, pops a tire going seventy on the highway. They survive, but they’re going to miss their flight. The first place they find to pull over is a leukemia/lymphoma clinic, which means nearly everyone there is having a worse day than they are. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Wow.” “Wow.” The man behind them, getting up from where he’d been strapped to the table just smiled, The device had, shockingly, worked perfectly. He stepped in between to get a closer look at the picture. “That’s amazing,” he said. “That’s exactly what…wait a minute.” The other saw it, too. “Oh,” said one. “Well that’s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[He sat at the empty table for a long time, looking at nothing. A half-drunk bottle of wine stood near his right hand. He hadn’t even had the energy to finish drinking it all away. The house was empty now. His wife and kids would be happier, he supposed. He hadn’t been unaware of what [...]]]></description>

		<title>Occupy 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is not a story about Harvard. It could be. The national average family income is just under 45,000 dollars. You could earn twice that, so twice what the average FAMILY pulls in, and still not be able to send one of your (on average) 2.5 kids to college, for two years, with a whole [...]]]></description>

		<title>Wall street, the 99% and the 53%</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It makes me sad to go to the “We are the 53%” website, and not for any political reason. Just because, if you go there, in between all the high schoolers and college kids who don’t know their asses from their face holes (no offense kids, none of us did either at that age, it’s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hurricane</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I sit here, waiting for the hurricane, studiously not doing any packing for my upcoming move, I get the chance to read a couple of the political and economic columnists I most respect and basically the news is this: if we’re going to get out of this hole we need to do more of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Israel 5</title>
		<description><![CDATA[And so I complete my digging tour. The dig itself goes on for another week, but my part is done. To be honest, I feel pretty good about it. I will miss the community, and being part of this thing for sure, but my back feels like it’s been used for spare parts, I’ve got [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Though it is viewed by many as an intellectual hobby, and though it is an activity carried out—mostly—by bands of academics, whom nobody is going to confuse for a football team any time soon, archaeology is dangerous. Everything about archaeology is dangerous. It’s not ice road truckers dangerous. I&#8217;ve never heard of an archaeology related [...]]]></description>
