Lance Bass Clearly Loves Seeing Diddy Get What’s Coming to Him

Obviously, the Diddy charges are serious business, and I don’t want to seem like I’m making light of the situation. That said, there is a vicarious thrill in watching Lance Bass revel in Diddy’s comeuppance. According to Bass, Diddy is the one who told Justin Timberlake to “drop” *NSYNC, and practically in front of their faces. — Keep in mind, he was their opener. — Rightly, Bass never forgot about that and has “never liked him.” He also never went to any “Diddy parties,” but I couldn’t help but notice in Page Six’s coverage that there are a lot of pics of Justin and Diddy together… (Page Six)

Cymbalic read Hey, Kiddo by Jarrett J. Krosoczka because it was challenged (ultimately it was retained) for removal from a school library for inappropriate language and depiction of drug use. “My observation about the stated concerns of the school board is that the cursing is normal in any family, and while the drug abuse is the catalyst to the path his life took, the story is about his life and journey.” Are there groups trying to ban books in your area?
