		<title>Microsoft Word FAIL</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just have one question&#8230; Does Microsoft&#8217;s editorial department use Word&#8217;s grammar check feature?

		<title>One thing we should toss out: Marie Arana&#8217;s rant</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This weekend, Marie Arana wrote an editorial for the Washington Post detailing how the Nobel Prize in Literature is decided by a bunch of anti-American meanies and we should get rid of it. I don&#8217;t have a problem, necessarily, with her thesis, but her reasoning is so shallow and strange that I had to draft [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kimthejournalist.wordpress.com&blog=1169524&post=213&subd=kimthejournalist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Why GM has to fail (and the sooner the better)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are plenty of blogs out there with this headline, or something similar, tacked on top. Most of them commence with dissections of General Motors&#8217; bloated budget, taking side bets on bankruptcy proceedings, or blasting the Americans who bought GM&#8217;s giant cars as the real scapegoats. GM is in the news a lot lately&#8211; after [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kimthejournalist.wordpress.com&blog=1169524&post=204&subd=kimthejournalist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>When I Finally Find a Job</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As soon as I find a new job, I&#8217;m getting that expensive face wash.
Well, as soon as I get my first paycheck.
But I&#8217;ll feel so much better when I find my new job.
When I get a job, I can finally have my wisdom teeth pulled.
If I can land a job with dental care, that is.
Wait. [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kimthejournalist.wordpress.com&blog=1169524&post=199&subd=kimthejournalist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Because Sujit is making me depressed&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;Here&#8217;s a list of ten things I truly miss about summertime weather. The cold, the sleet, the wind, the snow, the slush, they are my arch-nemeses. Yes, this is a fluff post, but the weather is bitter and I am counting the days until we go to Bermuda. I can drive in the winter and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kimthejournalist.wordpress.com&blog=1169524&post=194&subd=kimthejournalist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Does bipartisanship work?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Under George W. Bush, my incessant stream of vitriol was welcomed into the blogosphere and facebook with open arms. Bush was a terrible president with terrible ideas; he and his party (which reigned Congress for six of his eight years in office) allowed the unfettered free market to sink our economy; his neoconservative / pro-Armageddon [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kimthejournalist.wordpress.com&blog=1169524&post=187&subd=kimthejournalist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>When I think of it, my fingers turn to fists</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A week full of reading blogs coded with misogyny and meetings with hiring managers who think it’s acceptable to call and ask for a date after my interview has boiled my brain down to one gluey question: What does it take for me to be taken seriously, both as a woman in general and as [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kimthejournalist.wordpress.com&blog=1169524&post=182&subd=kimthejournalist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Blog for choice 09</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In honor of the 36th anniversary of  the Roe v. Wade decision, I&#8217;m blogging for choice. It is fundamental to remember that the right to choose is a hard-won and newly-defended right&#8211; despite the explosive scientific and medical advances of the 1950&#8217;s and 1960&#8217;s, religious doctrine guided by the hand of sexual oppression still determined [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kimthejournalist.wordpress.com&blog=1169524&post=177&subd=kimthejournalist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Yo DJ, that&#8217;s my DJ</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some say the best club DJ is the one who plays songs you&#8217;ve never heard but instantly love, or the one who perfectly blends tracks. I disagree. We all know the best DJ is the one who plays your request when you slyly sidle up to the booth and wittily shout, &#8220;HEY! Do you have [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kimthejournalist.wordpress.com&blog=1169524&post=175&subd=kimthejournalist&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>The concept of satire</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It appears that many of those who read post #165 are unfamiliar with it. As an aside: If this is the sort of flaming I&#8217;m in for whenever I gently mock my beloved and beworshipped President Barack Obama, we&#8217;re in for a long 4 (8 maybe?!) years&#8230; Everyone gets busted equally here.
