		<description><![CDATA[Okay, maybe it wasn&#8217;t actually him.  Maybe it was whoever operates his Twitter account.  But his name is on it, so the blame starts there. First, the backstory. Last week, I noticed a Twitter trending topic that said &#8220;Justin Deserves Our Love.&#8221; Never one to pass up a chance to make a sociological comment about [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First, let me admit that I haven&#8217;t always been the biggest fan of Baltimore since I moved here in 2009.  I also haven&#8217;t always been thrilled by the live events I&#8217;ve attended here, and maybe that&#8217;s led me to be a bit of a curmudgeonly misanthrope.  (Or, maybe I was just born that way.)  But [...]]]></description>

But, ultimately, you have to do something.  [...]]]></description>
