		<description><![CDATA[For decades business have been required to inform the IRS if they paid any non-employee more than $600 a year. That&#8217;s about to get much more complicated and difficult due to a new clause in the Obamacare bill. Now business will be required to send 1099s to every business they&#8217;ve paid more than $600. This [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In 1996 Richard Jewel discovered a pipe bomb at the Atlanta Olympics.  He helped clear the area, and was considered a hero until the FBI decided he was a suspect.  After leaking their suspicions to the media they raided his home and took just about everything that wasn&#8217;t locked down, including his mom&#8217;s Tupperware bowls.

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s easy to feel superior reading stories of our ancestors buying worthless potions from snake oil salesmen.  But a stroll though the aisles of any warehouse style store proves that nothing much has changed.  Every other end cap features a small TV making a pitch for some magic pill or potion that&#8217;s long on hype [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The New York Legislature is considering a bill that would make it a criminal offense for restaurant chefs to add salt to food. Yes, you read that right.  Once again, the absurdity of real life makes satire obsolete. This is exactly what happens when you let the nanny camel get its nose in the tent. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back in 1978 F. Paul Wilson wrote Lippidleggin&#8217;, a short story about a farmer bootlegging butter and eggs, which had been banned to improve everyone&#8217;s health.  I&#8217;m guessing that back then most people thought it was entertaining, but silly. Back in 2007, with the author&#8217;s permission, I did a reading of the story for an [...]]]></description>

This guy isn&#8217;t a one hit wonder; he&#8217;s done quite a few very funny, well done parodies. You won&#8217;t fully appreciate the next one unless you&#8217;ve heard the original.  Not only is Carrie Underwood&#8217;s &#8220;Jesus Take The Wheel&#8221;  [...]]]></description>
