	<description>The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger).  The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.</description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am totally with you on this one Steve. I refuse to put ads on my Blog too. I don&#039;t want anyone saying I am a paid shill for anyone (even thouugh the ads don&#039;t pay enough to change opinions anyway). When I startrd out on the web, I and all of my internet friends used the free hosts (Tripod, Angelfire, Geocities etc.) and the big complaint was always the banner ads they put on the pages. When I decided to start paying for my own host, I made a pledge that I would not do advertisements. I pay for everything so it&#039;s all mine, no questions asked, even though I could probably make a few bucks from my primary domain, it had 7.6 million hits last year, but I still prefer to be independent  

My stance has been taken wrong by some in the past, it is not intended as a swipe against anyone that runs ads, this is just my personal quirk, I don&#039;t want my pages to become distracting and slow loading because Google or another ad host is running slow, so I choose not to do it.

As for your poll Steve, WordPress has a &lt;a href=&quot;http://blog.jalenack.com/archives/democracy/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;cool little plug-in&lt;/a&gt; that allows you to host the poll your self, just upload the file to your plugins folder and add a line of code to your sidebar template and it&#039;s all yours. This is the same one I run.]]></description>
