			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is no one who actually reads the first blog  post.  You and I both know that.  So why do you insist on continuing?</p>
<p>I mean, hey – I&#8217;m honoured, but perhaps you&#8217;re looking for  some witty banter.  I&#8217;m terribly sorry to  disappoint.</p>
<p>Perhaps you&#8217;re looking for an insightful commentary on a  recent news issue&#8230; but considering this first blog post, written mainly as a  placeholder, by necessity is written well in advance, I&#8217;m disappointing you  again.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m all about bringing value.  So in the interest of bringing value, here&#8217;s  the best piece of advice I can give you&#8230; just stop reading now.</p>
<p>OK.  You&#8217;re still  here.</p>
<p>Perhaps you weren&#8217;t paying any attention.  That&#8217;s a bad habit, you know.  I mean, what if I had fantastic, insightful  knowledge that could have revolutionized your life.  You weren&#8217;t paying attention though&#8230; you  missed it.</p>
<p>In fact, just by continuing to read this shows you&#8217;re  simply not that much of an &#8216;attention to detail&#8217; type person.  So really – there&#8217;s nothing you can gain  here.  Check in later.  Go read some of the other posts.  Just don&#8217;t continue reading here.</p>
<p>Wow.  You don&#8217;t give  up easily, do you.</p>
<p>Remind me to refer you to a great book, called “There&#8217;s a  Monster at the End of this Book.”  It  stars that action hero of Sesame Street  programming, “Grover.”</p>
<p>I think you&#8217;d like it.</p>
