G20: But where was Mr Angela Merkel?
"So, darling, how's your week looking?"

"So-so. I've got a meeting on Thursday."

"Oh, that's a bore. Where is it?"

"London."

1. He was photographed having a private lunch with Michelle Obama ...
.... and caption read that he is "notoriously reclusive".

I guess I would be, if given the choice, too. :shrug:

2. Definitely worth the read

From your link:

"But then, after all the razzmatazz, the dinners, the meeting the Queen, the jostling of the entourages, the group photograph, the breaking of the window of that bank, 20 people walk into a room to have a meeting. A meeting about how everything's going wrong and is there any way of stopping it?

How does that work? How do they refrain, as soon as the doors close, from pissing themselves laughing?

"What the hell do those guys out there think we're going to do!?" I imagine them giggling hysterically. "There's an asteroid heading towards the planet and we haven't even got Superman's phone number!"

Read it folks - it's worth a few minutes

and if you don't chuckle at least once,

your sense of humor is broken

:dunce:
