UnpaidEntertainer is not for me. I enjoyed reading Mike&#8217;s writing, he&#8217;s a great writer and a pretty cool guy, but UnpaidEntertainer caters to an audience who isn&#8217;t looking for my type of writing.

		<description><![CDATA[I know I said that I was done with my sophomoric musings on this site, but something so utterly ridiculous - so exponentially unlikely to have occurred that I have seriously begun to question my atheistic convictions to wonder if indeed that there is God out there somewhere, and that his contempt for me is so great that he has set his full and undivided attention and efforts toward fucking with me relentlessly.  It for this reason that I have come out of retirement, for one night only, to share this most unfortunate turn of events.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tragic events like this should be viewed as humbling reminders that as much as we'd like to believe that we are guaranteed to live to 85, or 65, or even until tomorrow, we aren't.  It is sad that it takes the senseless loss of a talented young woman to reinforce the fact that we only have a finite amount of time to live, and that we should take time to be thankful for the things and people that we have, and make a point to live every day as well as you can - because you truly don't know how many of them you actually have left.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Almost every day I see a report or hear of some sort of ridiculous rituals being performed by people purely for religious reasons.  I usually blow them off as they're typically silly, pointless mechanisms that really don't hurt anyone other aside from maybe wasting someone's time.

But every once and again, I become truly appalled that people - real living, breathing, thinking, loving human beings can perform such excessively malevolent acts in the name of their Deity.

This headline definitely caught my attention:

200,000 animals to be sacrificed at Nepal festival

    More than 200,000 buffaloes, goats, chickens and pigeons will be killed Tuesday and Wednesday at the temple in the jungles of Bara district, about 100 miles (160 kilometers) south of Katmandu, to honor the Hindu goddess Gadhimai...

    ...The slaughtered animals are taken back by devotees to their villages and eaten during a feast. The meat is considered blessed and consuming it protects them from evil.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you're ever inclined to start your own website, whether it's a blog, or a forum, or an ecommerce site, you should definitely exercise caution when selecting your domain name.

Take the website " Pen Island", for example.  They sell promotional items that are customizable for giveaways and such.  The name of their website, penisland.net, might not be the best representation of their business with respect to the type of clientele that they are looking to attract.

And just as a word of warning, I'd advise against visiting the same domain with a '.com' extension - unless you're into that sort of thing.]]></description>
