		<description><![CDATA[Check out the guy in the picture. He&#8217;s an idiot. Not for wearing a silly hat. But for gluing it to his head. With superglue. He had to go to an emergency room (one with pointless dolphins painted on the wall) to have it removed. I&#8217;m sure everyone asked the guy, &#8220;What were you thinking?&#8221; And...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s a moment in the movie &#8220;The Talented Mr. Ripley&#8221; where Gwyneth Paltrow is standing in a boat, and you can see her cellulite. Probably not if you rent it, though &#8212; It&#8217;s too subtle. You have to see it on the big screen. The way the light hits her barely-there cottage cheese is magical....]]></description>

We were at one of those zillion restaurants that call themselves &#8220;farm-to-table.&#8221; This has become shorthand for &#8220;the food is so fresh, you can taste it!&#8221;...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week, it turns out, was National Eating Disorders Awareness Week.  Until I read about it later on Huffington Post&#8217;s lifestyle page, I was not aware of this awareness event, but that doesn&#8217;t matter, because I&#8217;m always aware of eating disorders. They&#8217;re everywhere. I&#8217;m not just talking about the classics, good ol&#8217; anorexia and bulimia....]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In my quest to be one of those people &#8211; the successful ones &#8211; I&#8217;ve observed a couple of things that separate them from the other people: They set limits and stick to them. They fly carry-on. I&#8217;m not just talking financial or career success. If I were, neither of these rules applies. The fact...]]></description>

But for all the time she spends feeding him, burping him, changing his diaper, putting him down or picking him up, I&#8217;m pretty sure I spend more time each day with my laptop. True, it lets me sleep through the night, with only an occasional 3am email...]]></description>

OK, maybe it isn&#8217;t truly a gene &#8211; you&#8217;d have to do one of those nature/nuture tests where you separate identical twins, and see if one of them grows up to be a captain of industry while the other becomes captain of towels at Lucille Roberts.
