"Exceptions traveling through your code," a great way to say you will need rollback for setup.
Imagine a blog entry where I am reminded how important rollback is in setup and take a few minutes remind everyone.

To blog or to book? That is the question.
Imagine a blog entry where I discuss my current thinking about writing a book and solicit input from my readers.

Weird parsing problems using the Windows Installer XML (WiX) toolset?
Imagine a blog entry where I point out that the .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 Tech Preview (that fixes a bug you might encounter when using the WiX toolset) has been posted.
