		<description><![CDATA[The home improvement industry is plagued by many interesting individuals that really do not have the consumers’ best interests in mind.  From marketing schemes, to inferior products, to questionable business actions; the “here today, gone tomorrow” mentality of some of my industry comrades can be quite embarrassing. There are many issues that help set the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I made my annual trek to St. Paul two weeks ago for the Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament.  It is a journey that I enjoy&#8230;.a time to relax, reflect, and recharge.  This year&#8217;s tournament was exceptional.  It was truly an &#8220;experience&#8221; that will last a life time. According to the Minnesota State High School League, [...]]]></description>

The remaining two characters, however, are still, to this day, my favorites.  Shaggy, and his [...]]]></description>
