		<description><![CDATA[In a previous life, I played in a ska band. You haven’t heard of us. We weren’t particularly cool or popular. We never got on MTV, signed a record deal or played at the Peach Pit After Dark. We did manage to tour a little and write a lot of upbeat songs about drinking and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The hardest thing about putting this top 10 list together was narrowing it down to less than eleven movies. Chalk it up to my protracted adolescence or perpetual immaturity, but I just frickin&#8217; love movies about high school. That said, this is a Top 10 list. So there will be no &#8220;honorable mentions&#8221; and no [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am descended from a long line of compulsive storytellers. Seriously, my Grandpa James was the World Heavyweight Champion of talking shit. Get a couple of whiskeys in the man, and he would hold court for the rest of the night. Fish stories. Tall tales. Jaw-droppingly-inappropriate jokes. Dirty limericks. You name it. And my dad [...]]]></description>

The Muppet Christmas Carol (1993) I&#8217;ll admit this isn&#8217;t the strongest outing from the [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m stoked, proud, nervous and excited. Also a little jealous. Partly because [...]]]></description>

After a series of near-misses, short-lists, semi-finals and finals, Mr. Unlucky finally stepped up to the plate and hit one out of the park. That&#8217;s right, my little screenplay about leprechaun gangsters, true love, road trips, diabolical corporate executives, game shows, breakfast cereal, a 1960 Plymouth Valiant [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I must admit: I&#8217;ve always been a little suspicious of screenwriting seminars and the people who teach them. If Robert McKee really knows how to craft a Black-List-topping, low-to-mid-six-figures-selling, Oscar-winning screenplay, why doesn&#8217;t he sit down and write one of his own, instead of charging me and you and everyone we know a thousand bucks [...]]]></description>
