	<itunes:summary>Halfthoughts is by Eric Priezkalns and is about anything, everything and nothing.  To be more precise, it is mostly about nothing, but with bits of something sprinkled here and there in the mix, just like the universe, or a mainstream political speech.  Each halfthought is a law unto itself.  It might be funny or serious, short or long, topical or timeless.  It might be an analysis of current affairs, a comedy skit, a gig review or a discussion about technology.  If there was a better explanation of halfthoughts, there would be no point to creating them in the first place.  The only way to find out if you like it, is to try it.  You should!</itunes:summary>
