		<description><![CDATA[We were looking at microwaves last weekend and we went to Darty, one of the biggest electronics stores here in France that is known for their customer service.

		<description><![CDATA[Ok, after a long vacation from the blog I&#8217;m back at it.  That Seattleite in Paris really scored big because my post about her blog was on the top spot for a long time.  The bill is in the mail.
One of the reasons I hadn&#8217;t updated my blog was because I was in [...]]]></description>

I recently got one from someone (anonymous like me) who has started a blog titled &#8220;A Seattleite in Paris&#8221;.  There are only a few entries, and [...]]]></description>

And what a coincidence that my previous post was about the transportation strike, and there is another one scheduled for Wednesday.  The next one is supposed to be serious, because a week later there is a [...]]]></description>

I was looking forward to my badminton match tonight when I get a call from my wife.  &#8220;The strikes starts tonight at 8pm, not tomorrow!&#8221; she says.  So I look on the net, all I find are details about the schedule tomorrow.  I ask my coworkers and they confirm.  I send [...]]]></description>

Riding the metro is rarely fun.  The SDF (Sans Domicile Fixe - this term literally means &#8220;without a permanent address&#8221;, it&#8217;s part of an attempt to restore dignity to everyone, even the homeless) get on the metro and then they&#8217;ve got [...]]]></description>

Doctors, August, and the ER.  What do these three things have [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m not sure how to translate baguette, it&#8217;s the [...]]]></description>

Having a baby in France is a very enjoyable process.  First, with the socialized medicine, you [...]]]></description>
