Hey, if I had made some $40 million by the age of 22, I'd be depressed too. Or maybe not. https://www.sportskeeda.com/tennis/naomi-osaka-net-worth

More likely Oliver's Pool!

The game tomorrow begins at 4:20 p.m. Is that a hint for everyone to toke up first? That seems to be a time translated into West Coast time though, so maybe only Dodger fans can hit it.

Not hardly. When I went to see the price of tickets for an Angels/Yankees game, marginal seats along the base lines were over $800! And that was the box office, not StubHub.

@FrankRDid you read RW&RB?

So you've never been to a game there! Well, at least an MLB game...

Thanks for sharing @KrisParrGet some peanuts and cracker jacks and have a grand old time!

Here's the link to Red, White & Royal Blue: https://www.amazon.com/Red-White-Royal-Blue-Novel-ebook/dp/B07J4LPZRN/ref=sr_1_2?crid=18MEVCKEMOP94&dchild=1&keywords=red%2C+white+%26+royal+blue+by+casey+mcquiston&qid=1622651992&sprefix=red%2C+white+%26+royal+blue%2Caps%2C217&sr=8-2 With 91% of the reviews either 4 or 5 star, it's amazing that the ones Amazon quotes are mostly the negative ones.

There's a thread or two on Dick's, but not recently. I am also curious about present day.

Casey McQuiston's latest novel, One Last Stop, was just released. In this novel, she focused on female characters. https://www.amazon.com/One-Last-Stop-Casey-McQuiston/dp/1250244498

Why would one read a book repeatedly? For one, there are many fish in the sea. Two, what do you gain when you ignore a book so that you can read another one repeatedly? Granted, a second reading often shows you new insights that you missed upon the first reading, but, I submit, it is a diminishing return.

These last two days I have been reading Red, White, & Royal Blue. Although at times preposterous or silly, it is indeed a fun romp of a read for someone looking to enjoy time at the beach or a long plane ride. Imagine a Prince of England secretly dating the First Son of the United States! No, not Don Jr. and Prince Harry. Author McQuiston creates a female president and a 21 year old son. e meets Prince Henry. Will love blossom? Will they get caught? Who sucks whom? Lots of history too.

@Reisr30did you change your mind in two months?

Also announced: Coachella will take place April 15-17 and 22-24, 2022, while country music counterpart Stagecoach will happen April 29 to May 1, 2022, organizers announced Tuesday.(desertsun.com) The weekend of April 8-10 is still open, or so it appears. I wonder if there will be a party at, say @OliveGarden? Somehow Olive comes to mind!

The White Party had rescheduled this year for September, but with Sanker's death it is now moved to 2022, specifically the weekend of April 29th. https://www.desertsun.com/story/life/2021/06/01/white-party-palm-springs-moved-april-2022-after-founders-death/7500084002/

No, no, you bring circuit breakers and see who can pop theirs first!

We are wanting a vicarious thrill here, @KrisParr Now you go have a splendid encounter and don't think of us! Se la vie!

So would the effect be that this is no longer Daddy's website?

@dcman Why not just post the link so that we can all see it? @mikegaite last posted on January 25th, so I doubt that he will.

Sounds like a fairy tale come true!

That's why you fit right in here! We are all weird in our own way.

I can't see the relationship between the two.

Jeffrey Sanker created an event that became huge. I went to one WP dance, but no other events. (They became a whole weekend full of events.) They were expensive but fun. Drugs became a big deal as it seemed one must get high to have maximum enjoyment. So the City of Palm Springs found itself in a position of endorsing and promoting an event where they knew drugs were paramount.

What a cool idea1
