It's apparently colder here in London than it is in Antartica right now. Fortunately, and even in spite of the complete and utter chaos in the country, there's only a few more weeks until I'll find myself back in warm sunny Zimbabwe. From the looks of my travel itinerary, the 18 days I'm planning to spend there should be just enough time to thaw out.

This man makes CHARTS of the English Language. How hot is that?
Listen to me (or rather to them)
- Grammar Girl
Pearls of wisdom that are needed so. - Jordan, Jesse, Go! | Maximum Fun
America's Radio Sweetheart and the Boy Detective at their raunchy best. Yes, I know this should be a guy-thing. - Wait, wait don't tell me
Will it survive a post-Bush return to normality? Will we all? - This American Life
An oldie but a goodie. - The Slate Gabfest
Three liberals trying to avoid saying the word 'F*!%' (with some success) while talking about politics and other stuff you should know. - The Vinyl Cafe
A northern version of Prarie Home Companion, without all the distraction of a presenter getting kicked out of his neighborhood for being an ass. - The Sound of Young America
The interview with Greg Behrendt about his wife, the gym, the adorably cute guy from The Office, and the pass is stop-in-your-tracks hilarious. It's hard to find a bad interview.
