		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve watched The Watchmen before. But not in Sri Lanka, and not with the crowd I usually hang out with here. So off to the cinema we went. The first time, it was the movie experience. This time around, it was the movie going experience. For the past decade or so, I&#8217;ve probably watched more [...]]]></description>

Is it the same today? Yes, yes it is but the limits under which Wikipedia (like most other organizations) must [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The coffin corner is one of those concepts that I remember reading ages ago but forgot until a recent memory joggle. In this case, the jab to the memory came from a slightly sensationalist analysis of how Air France flight 447 may have been downed.

So while you are napping, eating or watching a movie on [...]]]></description>

Yeah, so it has been an eventful yesterday &#8211; my luggage got misplaced somewhere in the bowels of Heathrow airport, so I have now added to that particular statistic. I am less annoyed about this than I should be, I suppose. The law of averages was [...]]]></description>

It didn&#8217;t sound like a flat tire (there was no whooshing exhalation at the end), it didn&#8217;t sound like some clumsy construction worker dropping a paint bucket. It sounded like [...]]]></description>

Said relation has offspring of a certain age.

After years of hard work (aided and abetted by a manservant with a Slavic name and questionable clothing tastes); the scientist finally makes a breakthrough discovery. &#8220;It&#8217;s alive, [name of Slavic origin]&#8220;; he shrieks in triumph.

		<description><![CDATA[In any social encounter of significance, there are always things that I really shouldn&#8217;t say. No matter how pithy or accurate those observations may be, opening my cakehole inevitably leads to recriminations, raised eyebrows and the descent of an uneasy silence on the conversation (also see: dropping a clanger, putting your foot in it, open [...]]]></description>
