    Yep. TC is my go-to drink. Has been since my college days, and twice in the past year I've had to send a Vodka Collins back.

    In our case, it was a lot more complicated than that, but everyone she wanted to be there was there.

    When you stumble across a Law & Order franchise episode you had not seen before and it turns out to be a two-parter with a crossover show having the conclusion.

    The Fox Sports Go app. It finally crashes less often than a demolition derby champ now, but it still doesn't have the very basic ability to let me replay recent broadcasts, something Watch ESPN has had solved for roughly forever. Hello, McFly. If I had two hours to devote to watching soccer right when you are broadcasting it, I'd save myself the trouble and just turn on my TV.

    The Slate phone app. I like it for quick reads while killing time, as the articles are generally short and I can usually find something interesting. The problem is that the articles will refer to the video below or some other attachment which is on the website but does not appear on the phone app. I often wonder if anyone who works there ever so much as looks at the phone app to see what steaming crap it is..

    LinkedIn's way of recommending contacts is apparently to mine your email contacts, which I guess shouldn't surprise me. I guess I could turn that off. Anyway, it's funny when suggested links include women you once dated, however briefly.

    I thought a Tom Collins always came with gin, and if you want vodka you order it as vodka Collins.
    That's how it was when I was still a barfly.

    I like gin and tonic, but for a Collins I prefer vodka.
    Good wedding drink.
    Good hangover drink.

    I got a recommended contact from LinkedIn for a guy who died weeks earlier. Pleasant way to start my morning.

    Guh. Similar to how facebook regularly says I have memories on this date with my mother and father, who've both been dead for more than five years.
