&lt;p&gt;Long ago I tried to break it, to find some weakness, some way of escaping.  I franticly tugged and jerked at it, but to no avail.  Now I know it is much stronger than me, and I have given up trying to escape its cruel confinement.  It is attached to my collar and there is no way to remove it.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Hi There!</title><link>/stories/2006/02/02/hi-there/</link><pubDate>Thu, 02 Feb 2006 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/stories/2006/02/02/hi-there/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Special thanks to the members of the Gromet’s plaza

&lt;p&gt;Oh, hello there!
Who am I you ask? Oh, no one in particular. My name&amp;rsquo;s not
important, considering where I am right now.
Where am I you might ask? Well, that&amp;rsquo;s simple. I&amp;rsquo;m currently ten
feet underground, lying inside a casket. Oh, and I should also mention
that i&amp;rsquo;m mummified from head to toe in four layers of white bandages.
What am I doing down here? Oh my, what a story. Best to go back to
the beginning&amp;hellip;
For the past five years of my life, I&amp;rsquo;ve&amp;hellip; I&amp;rsquo;m sorry, was, a slave to the most
wonderful man i&amp;rsquo;ve ever met. I was homeless at the time and
down on my luck.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
