Local Questions, Vol. 12 | Field Notes From Palm Springs: Getting in Hot Water, Bears and Other Matters of Great Concern
Congratulations.
You've been in Palm Springs long enough now to realize that the questions keep on coming.
And, as we peel back the layers of the onion, maybe they also get more interesting.

Welcome to Volume 12, our next edition of the Field Notes series.
Today, we're getting ourselves in hot water with our first question. Let's jump in. Or better yet, ease in... no telling how hot things will get.
The Local Questions, Vol. 5 | Field Notes From Palm Springs
Live at the Thunderdome: Coyote vs. Roadrunner. Roadrunner vs. Rattlesnake.

Which means that, somewhere out there in the Coachella Valley, the real-life version of the Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner cartoons is playing out quite differently from the one we grew up with.
But you may not know that roadrunners in turn hunt rattlesnakes.
It's the desert's rough and tumble version of office politics.
