So did you take a walk, Dude?

I wager you're the closest of all members to the Staples Center.

I'm not that crazy :lol: But yes, I'm not that far away - I could walk to Olympic Blvd. and then it's about 5 miles or so

I guess his family knew him best, but given he was an entertainer, I expected something more like a celebration of his life. Instead I was a bit bored most of time.

Then, out of the blue, Paris was thrown in front of the microphone. When her voice cracked, I only just managed to hold back the tears. I looked at the ceiling and then at my feet, desperately trying to block it out. It was no good - I cried, as did all my housemates.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
