So Hezly, Jayla, Simone Rose, Tiana, maybe Claire as alternate. But now its looking like Hezly, Joscelyn (who got injured at her only Worlds as...

    Gymnastics #25 - Onward to LA

    Oh boy that was terrifying. I could barely look. I understand his issues, but I think the baggier longer shorts over leggings cuts off the leg line. The baggier shirt with the shorts can make it less clear whether there is a break at the waist, hips. He’s citing basketball, but this isn’t...

    Love, Balls and Courting: Tennis V

    As much as I like Alcaraz, what a performance from Sinner! To think they are 22/23 years old and we can watch this rivalry for 10+ years.

    The tipping dilemma in the US?

    In the US, there is legislation to exempt tips from income tax. So if it passes, many servers are going to want to keep the tips regime and not make a “living wage” which would be taxable and subject to withholding by the employer. In Spain, one of the waiters in Barcelona (where a friend was...

    In Memoriam

    My Rick Derringer encounter. When I was dancing in NYC, I was in a rock n roll dance company for a while. Ballet rock. We booked the Limelight and when we got there, the stage manager told us that there would be an opening act for us. It was Rick Derringer. I was like “Derringer is opening for...

    Gymnastics #25 - Onward to LA

    I really don’t know the reasoning. Is UB the most specialized for women? I guess SR and PH are the most specialized for men so it makes sense to leave them out, but I don’t know about HB. I actually love PB, but HB is the most exciting. VT has been the highest scoring apparatus, and it’s a quick...
