		<title>Happy New Year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There have been a lot of changes in the past year(s).  One of them is that I felt motivated to update my blog and bring it back online.  I&#8217;ll talk later about my new vision for the blog, but for now, I&#8217;ll give a brief update about what&#8217;s new with me. I am engaged to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beginnings</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is the first blog post I have written in a very long time.  Wow, what a long strange trip it has been&#8230; I don&#8217;t really even know where to start.  Thus, I think I will start at the beginning.  I want to start posting as if this were a new blog.  I will leave [...]]]></description>

		<title>Family Pictures 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Family pictures are usually pretty traumatic for the McClurgs, but this year things went smoothly, and the pictures turned out pretty well. My sister Moriah picked out the outfits, and I think she did a great job.]]></description>

		<title>My Lab</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As you may know, I am a teaching assistant for this semester&#8217;s Digital Design class at the U of I.  This is the third time I have helped teach this class.  It is an introduction to digital electronics (binary numbers, boolean logic, logic gates, sequential circuits, etc.), and it&#8217;s really fun.

		<title>Lump Sum</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wow. All I can say is wow.  This performance by Bon Iver is simply amazing. Unfortunately, they only sing about half of the lyrics here for some reason. You can hear the whole song with less instrumentation if you wish.]]></description>

		<title>Today</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent most of the afternoon today in Iowa City.  I had a few things that I needed to check/setup in my lab.  After that, I spent some time walking around downtown.  The weather was absolutely beautiful, and the city was surprisingly peaceful.  A few random people smiled at me. I like being outdoors. I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Spring</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer. -Albert Camus While I don&#8217;t necessarily agree with that quote (there doesn&#8217;t seem to be an overabundance of warmth in my heart these days), I do believe that God has the power to control the seasons.  I am tired [...]]]></description>

		<title>Old Pictures</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A friend recently asked me what I looked like when I was a kid.  Well, thanks to my dad&#8217;s photography skills and my mom&#8217;s archiving/organizational skills, I was able to obtain some photographs which I believe will answer that question.]]></description>
