If you miss this, you’re the human equivalent of decaf coffee—technically alive, but why bother? Stay home reorganizing your sock drawer while the rest of us are out living. And when Monday comes and you’re whining “I’m bored,” remember… you had your shot. Even the psychic says "don't be a bore."
Fri 8/15 @ 6pm, Lone Tree Golf & Event Center, Antioch. "Folks, tonight’s not just comedy… it’s a buffet. Before these two comedians take the stage, you’re getting Hand-made Chicken Cordon Bleu, Bistro Filet with Truffle Demi-Glaze Mushroom Sauce, Strawberry Fields Salad, and Chef’s Assortment of Desserts.
Water, iced tea, or coffee included—then Patrick and Jeff will keep you laughing so hard you might need a doggy bag for your punchlines.

I’m a young city in farm boots—
rows that end in 🍷 wine glasses,
stands stacked with 🍑 summer sweetness,
and a shoreline where the Delta first breathes.
Neighbors think they invented fruit,
but I’m the quiet one feeding the county.
