Something that I actually, really just Googled
“Does gin and orange juice taste good?”
Thankfully, there was already this Yahoo Answers page to help me out. The best answer?
“Snoop Dogg and life in the 90s would suggest that it is at the very least drinkable.”
God, I love the internet.

Boston, here I come
I’m going to be in Boston from March 25 to March 29, attending the first annual PAX East expo. For the uninformed, PAX = Penny Arcade Expo, which is the largest gaming convention in North America, and just barely snubbed by the Tokyo Game Show. Traditionally, PAX takes place in Seattle, but the show has recently grown so large that they decided to create an alternate show on the East coast...

Nevermore? Mystery visitor misses Poe's birthday →
Is this tradition “nevermore”? A mysterious visitor who left roses and cognac at the grave of Edgar Allan Poe each year on the writer’s birthday failed to show early Tuesday, breaking with a ritual that began more than 60 years ago. “I’m confused, befuddled,” said Jeff Jerome, curator of the Poe House and Museum. “I don’t know what’s going on.” The tradition dates back to at least 1949,...

Fox readying U.S. version of 'Torchwood' →
I can haz plz?
This is… hopefully going to be awesome. With the original writer at the wheel, penning a more global script, it could be great. It could be great enough to give us four or five more seasons of Torchwood.
Now let’s see if they cut all the gay from the show, in which case I might avoid it on principle.

This is how we deal with pests
Me: Eek! Is that a spider?
Boyfriend: I don't know, but it's dead.
Me: I know it's dead, but still...
Boyfriend: It's trash.
Me: Can you get it, in case it's a spider disguised as trash?

The fading fairy tale; or, returning to Kansas...
The boyfriend and I have been calling this vacation our “fairy tale trip”. It’s fitting, really, considering the Gothic Victorian house we’ve been staying in, circa 1885. And the winter gardens down below our bedroom window. And the gorgeous, indulgent meals we’ve been eating three (on one occasion, four…) times a day.
We spent a day at the Newport Aquarium,...
