Rice, here.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;George B.&lt;/strong&gt; : - Rice? Good idea. And get a couple of egg rolls, too, Condi. Maybe we should  send some to the guy in China. And the Middle East. Can you get chinese food in the Middle East? I don&#039;t know.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;    (Door slam. Musica.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

 <link>http://programmerstools.org/node/499</link>
 <description>&lt;p &gt;&lt;strong &gt;Chirstmas story&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p &gt;There was a man who worked for the Post Office, whose job it was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses.&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; One day, a letter came to his desk, addressed in a shaky handwriting, to God. He thought he should open it to see what it was about.&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; He opened it and read:&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; &lt;em &gt;Dear God,&lt;br &gt; I am a 93 year old widow, living on a very small pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had $100.00 in it, which was all the money I had until my next pension check. Next Sunday is Christmas, and I had invited two of my friends over for dinner. Without that money, I have nothing to buy food with. I have no family to turn to, and you are my only hope Can you please help me?&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; Sincerely,&lt;br &gt; Edna&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; The postal worker was touched. He showed the letter to all of the other workers.&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; Each of them dug into his wallet and came up with a few dollars. By the time he made the rounds, he had collected $96.00, which they put into an envelope and sent to the woman.&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; The rest of the day, all of the workers felt a warm glow for the kind thing they had done.&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; Christmas came and went A few days later, another letter came from the old lady, to God. All of the workers gathered around while the letter was opened. It read:&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; &lt;em &gt;Dear God,&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me? Because of your gift of love, I was able to fix a glorious dinner for my friends. We had a very nice day and I told my friends of your wonderful gift.&lt;br &gt; &lt;br &gt; By the way, there was $4 missing. I think it must have been those thieving bastards at the Post Office.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
