		<description>Dear Brenda,

When you're done analyzing Neil, would you like to start on the rest of us? Really, there's a whole world of blogs as therapy out there. Maybe one of us could even interview you.

Sincerely,

		<description>Hi Brenda - please don't break Neil... or stop him listening to his penis.  It's almost as funny as the rest of him!  Neil - you really are a marvel!</description>
