As blogging becomes more and more mainstream – I even saw a current affairs segment talking about this phenomenon recently and, hey, it may even be considered hip in some places 🙂 – I am always amazed by the quality/humorous writings I can find out there. Here is an example of good writing with a twist: German tourists by Waiter Rant. And if you have the time, don’t miss the story about Heimlich manoeuvre and the infamous spoon!
Another short, cryptic but interesting quote. By the way, Yogi (a nickname in fact) Berra was a well-known baseball player who played for the New York Yankees.
