Revenge, like gazpacho soup, is a dish best served cold, precise, and merciless.

You know you're probably been reading a certain magazine way too long when one of their regular columnists disappears for a short while and you find yourself wondering what happened to them. It's like you've been reading their column for so long, and you've become so familiar with them, that their absence is similar to a friend who has moved away. (Yes, I'm lame like that.)

So when OPM posted an email in their "Dear OPM" section asking about one of my favorite contributors, Zoe Flower (who has been absent from the magazine for some time now), it was like they were reading my mind. Thank you, OPM, for saving me the embarrassment of sending you an email myself with that very question. In case you'd care to know, Zoe Flower has been designing games for a Vancouver-based developer and is expecting her first child. Congrats, Zoe!
