		<description><![CDATA["My" Border's store is closing.

No, I don't work for Border's and never have; nor am I in the real estate business. Like many retail customers of specialty shops I take "ownership" of the places I like.

It doesn&#8217;t matter what type of habit it is—good, bad or innocuous–you&#8217;ll notice the change. Since closing my off-line service business and &#8220;retiring&#8221; a few years ago one of my habits has been to have [...]]]></description>
