		<title>Saturday Six - Episode 220</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It looks like bad weather moving in, so I’ll post this as quickly as I can.  The picture I posted in the last post got me thinking about gas prices and driving in general.

First to play last week: Shannon of Shannon’s Moments of Introspection. Congratulations!

		<title>The Defenders of Marriage</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This almost sounds like a joke straight from Jay Leno or David Letterman.  Sadly, it isn’t.
Two of the latest lawmakers to co-sponsor one of those ridiculous “Defense of Marriage”-type laws that define marriage as a union between man and woman have themselves demonstrated a somewhat unconventional standard within their own commitment.
