		<description><![CDATA[While domain names are not as critical for search engine optimization as they once were they’re still relevant. Particularly to people.

		<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.

The nearest Books-A-Million store is in Brandon Town Center — about twenty miles from here.

I would love to see an alternative to Barnes and Noble in my area.]]></description>

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>

In the particular case it was a Kobo ereader, although it doesn’t matter what it is. I buy a stock, it immediately drops a few percent–even on an “up” day. On the rare occasion I buy a vehicle I’ll [...]]]></description>
