My Favorite Comedian: Demetri Martin

Here's a drawing of his:

Demetri Martin on WhoSay

And here's a video:

Colbert on Mormons

I like his coverage of this:

London's Trouble

View Woolwich Looting in a larger map

The above map shows the locations of the video below on the left (taken 8 August 2011; the language of the video may be offensive to some viewers), and the flat I lived in when I first got to England as a missionary serving in the Welling Ward on the right. Just up the street from the video's setting (in the direction the police are retreating toward) is the Sainsbury's where I did my shopping nearly every week for the four-and-a-half months I was serving there. Next door to that is the building that Jing, my first Chinese investigator lived in.

The Sky news report below was filmed on Lavender Hill, which is right by the Clapham Junction railways station (the busiest in the UK, I believe). I remember, just north of what the video shows, Elder Müller (from Switzerland) and I looked for a former investigator. We also taught a man from Ghana and his family. Jim was his name, if my memory serves me. It's scary stuff, y'know?

The reason I'm posting all this, I guess, is that my mission is kind of a big deal for me. The things happening in London are really scary for me, because I know the place, and I know people who live there.

... Anyway, there's that.
I hope it's over soon.
