		<description><![CDATA[The FIFA World Cup&#8230; I remember the first time I was aware of this magnificent sporting event in 1998: I was hanging around in my house (I lived with Dad back then), and I suddenly heard a big commotion erupting from his room. This was unusual because my father and his wife are usually pretty [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Food is always an issue in my household: Eze likes his rice &#38; beans, pork chops and viandas; I don&#8217;t. I&#8217;m usually met with incredulous faces (complete with gaping mouths and wide eyes) when I admit that I don&#8217;t like rice &#38; beans at all. If you&#8217;re boricua, you have to like rice &#38; beans, [...]]]></description>
