		<description><![CDATA[Just looking at the name of the road, you expect some evil intention. And when you get there, you see strange beasts scurry behind the house. Someone lowers the shades. You think you see devil horns behind a tuft of grass. And those eyes peaking at you from the second story window remind you of [...]]]></description>

Old Mrs. Montgomery, who has lived there for as long as anyone can remember, falls asleep every night to the pitter patter of the rain. When she ventures into town for groceries or a haircut, she is met with a respectful silence from the [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s otherwise impossible to communicate to Radio Shack employees what you&#8217;re looking for. When I walked in to the store today, the scene was typical: two employees, no customers.

Drops of milky water fell from the bridge beams. Exactly three cats had crossed the bridge, and Alvaro was waiting for the fourth. Four cats never cross the bridge in one [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;ve gotten a few writing exercises that force us to stretch our writing boundaries a little. Below is the result of one of them. Somewhere in the woods, a twig cracked. Ryan held his breath. He lifted the gun and waited. And [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, I wasn&#8217;t quite as exploratory with new music this year. I went app-crazy, but we&#8217;ve been over that. I mention the apps, though, because one of the big keepers of the year was PandoraJam, which doesn&#8217;t do much besides allow you to listen to your Pandora radio stations. Oh, except it also records the [...]]]></description>

The tinkle of a glass ornament as it drops off the tree, the crackle of a tray of ice cubes, the scraping of soot in the chimbley &#8212; these things don&#8217;t wake us from our slumber. Our dreams are far too captivating to succumb to such distractions. [...]]]></description>
