Yesterday’s post re New Year’s resolutions features a photo of a tuica bottle with the Dracula label. B. Stover asks: “Wonder what the Dracula tuica has to do with resolutions.” Tuica has been on my mind because it crops up in a scene in Mrs. Plansky’s Revenge (coming July 25, pre-orderable). It’s a potent Romanian drink and Dracula is perhaps the most famous Romanian. But why the heck did I post it? It must have something to do with undermining the whole concept of New Year’a resolutions. That’s the best I can do, B.!

“Any New Year’s resolutions this year?” Spence says.

“I resolve,” says Admin, “to be exactly the same in every respect all the way down to the microscopic level. Or more so.”

“The exact same resolution as last year?”

“That’s the whole point.”

Welcome adventurous dude, Lyric.
