Encore – Well there was no suspense to the encore. The first shot of the couples showed them in their group dance get up. Heck, we haven’t even gotten to it yet, and I’ve already written this.

Although it’s still a little bit of he said, she said, it looks like SunCal has backed out of its deal to buy the land it planned to build a controversial condominium project on.
