		<title>Stuck Like Congress, or Stuck in Philly With a Wandering Mind</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Here I am, stuck in Philadelphia&#8230;literally. Another Nor&#8217;Easter has blown in with a vengeance, and I am a shut-in at the Homestead Suites.

		<description><![CDATA[

A week or so ago, I received an email from the Editor-in-Chief of an Internet sports site to which I contribute. It was addressed to all of the Featured Columnists.

		<title>They Call Me Mr. Brightside: Finding the Positive in the Negative</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Apparently, I am in danger of losing my membership in the Eternal Optimists Club due to my recent less-than-cheery communications. This is an attempt to correct my course.
