		<description>David--I really appreciate hearing your thoughts on this.  I can imagine that it&#039;s incredibly difficult to come onto an established site and to keep the community happy in the transition. 

In all honesty, when I first started reading your stuff on Jack Of All Blogs and elsewhere, I was a bit put off by your blogging style. I totally wasn&#039;t into it (kind of thought you sounded like a jerk :-) ), but there was something about you that kept me interested, kept me reading. 

I thought, &quot;There must be something more to this guy&quot;, and since getting to know you I&#039;ve been really pleasantly surprised to find out that this is true. On the surface you&#039;re brash and cowboy-ish, but you&#039;re also a creative, forward thinking person with a lot of depth who has definite opinions that you&#039;re not afraid to share. 

David, I think your style might be more of an acquired taste for some readers (like it was for me :-) ) but who knows, you just might convert some nay-sayers to being fans in the end. :-)

Oh, and BTW--love the kitchen curtains--did you sew those yourself? :-)</description>
