		<description><![CDATA[I never had a Zella, but my mother used to make me play with all the little kids that no one else would play with - the puffy pale kid with asthma, the girl with thick glasses and a thick speech impediment, the stick-thin kid who was pretty dim. By the time I was 8, I&#039;d internalized it and picked these people as my friends without needing any encouragement.

What I wonder, sometimes, is how this has affected me now.

As for you, Miguel, it sounds like you must be nice. A good boy, in the best meaning of the phrase.
