Friday Pix: Recommended Reading For The Weekend

Every Friday I point you towards some recommended reading around the blogosphere:

1. Loved, loved, loved this article on the enduring appeal of Joan Didion by Caitlin Flanagan in The Atlantic. (Hat tip: Communicatrix)

2. I was completely engrossed in this analysis of what we need to know about the teenage mind in The Wall Street Journal.

3. Frank Bruni gave a beautiful defense of what it means to be gay.

4. Drop everything and watch The Muppits attack Fox News.

5. On the e-Learning  Stuff blog, this video entitled “Every Presentation Ever” is LOL funny (and accurate). If you’ve ever given a talk on power point, you will wince with recognition.

6. Over on Letters of Note, an amazing letter written by a freed slave to his former Master. (Hat tip: Ben Casnocha)

7. If you’ve been following the whole Ryan Gosling Hey Girl meme, you’ll enjoy Hey Girl. I Heart NPR.

8. Finally, on Londontopia, check out this list of Top 100 Cockney Rhyming Slang Words and Phrases. My personal fave? Gypsy’s Kiss=piss. Love it!

 

Have a great weekend!
