Check these out when you get a chance. In English there's papascott, who has witty and incisive reflections on life in general. In German there are a few others that I like: two German law blogs, vertretbar.de and blawg.advocatus.de. For both of these, make sure you're got your "German Legalese to German" dictionary handy. I also read Der Schockwellenreiter on occasion, but much of the stuff is a little too technical for me. The Daily Durchblick has one of the coolest designs I've seen (and the content is pretty interesting as well). And Dienstraum has pretty interesting links on the media. So refresh your knowledge of German verb declensions and head on over to these sites!
