Burger time
Get your buns over here!

There are days when nothing but a burger will do. And not just any burger, either. The kind with ALL the fixings:… Read

FROM THE EDITOR

Sometimes, fixing a problem is as simple as taking what you have and giving it a little… geek. No, we’re not making fun. For starters, how could I? As a bun-wearing, comma-slinging editor (with a loom in my basement), I am a very proud, card-carrying member of the nerd kingdom. And proud is the key word there. It’s also the inspiration for this month’s “geek-chic” issue. That’s right, we’re celebrating confidence—the type that tells you to follow your passions and to be geek-in-the-knees about it.

To get things started, we’re exploring the hot topic of digital rights management and considering how it’s redefining ownership. Also on our radar—the world of fanfiction, comic collecting, computer coding and a literary-inspired drink list we’ve aptly named “Bevvies for Bibliophiles.” But don’t whip up those Tequila Mockingbirds just yet. You’ve got burgers to try—and not just any, either. We’re talking French-onion soup that thinks it’s a burger, salmon sliders with tequila-lime coleslaw and veggie burgers with kalamata hummus.

Intrigued? We hope so. Magazines, after all, are our geek-chic passion, and nothing makes us happier than sharing this one with you.

Happy reading.
