		<title>It Has To Be Said: Second Life (R) Isn&#8217;t Addicting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I have previously stated, I went to grocery bagger school in the Philadelphia area.&#160; (I must be a grocery bagger, I read it on the Internet.)&#160; And one of the funny things about Philadelphia, besides that the best cheese steaks are neither Pat&#8217;s nor Geno&#8217;s, is that the rest of Pennsylvania is pretty damn [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[[With Post 6 as popular as it is, it is rare that I have to go searching for models these days. I certainly do that, but most of the models you see here from week to week have approached me and patiently waited until I had a chance to meet with them.

		<title>Op/Ed: The Positive Feminist</title>
		<description><![CDATA[by Meleth Oakleaf

I spoke to Pixeleen today about beginning another [...]]]></description>

		<title>It Has To Be Said: Stop Calling it a Game</title>
		<description><![CDATA[by Jessica Holyoke
Second Life is like the Internet in many respects; its on the computer, no one knows that you are a fairy tale blind mouse and there is a heavy text and graphical basis for our interactions.&#0160; And it looks like a video game; you can fly, you can be in space, you can [...]]]></description>
