This Post Has Nothing to Do with the World Cup

The weekend's almost here, so that must mean it's time to get some rain. My wife and I will have guests coming in from the Swedish speaking part of Finland today. We're looking forward to seeing them, and it's always fun to gallop along talking and/or listening to Finnish Swedish and Danish. (Incidentally, speaking of Finland, if you're interested in my review of a Finnish novel, Monika Fagerholm's The American Girl, click here).

I want to point out that that I've added another blog to our local blog roll: mmmetropolis. It's a nice looking blog, and I suggest you scroll down to the interesting post on Lolita. Good stuff. Have a great weekend!
