Western

"Wicked" Lily Bishop joins a wagon train to California, led by Michael Fabian and Johnny Trumbo, but news of the Gold Rush scatters the train. When Johnny and Michael finally arrive, Lily is rich from her saloon and storekeeper (former slaver) Pharaoh Coffin is bleeding the miners dry. But worse troubles are ahead: California is inching toward statehood, and certain people want to make it their private empire.

    Wait, which California are you referring to? There's three, California in the US, and then Baja California, and Baja California Sur in Mexico. There are also quite a few in the UK, not to mention California, Ohio, California, Pennyslvania, and California, Missouri. Don't forget California, Trinidad and Tobago, or California, Ubay, Bohol, Philippines; California, Ontario, Canada, California, Paraná, Brazil; California, Santandet, Colombia.

    Hang on, I just realized that I'm assuming you're referring to a place. There's also the movie California, a movie from 1927, 1947, 1963, and 1977. There's also the rock band by that name, a Blink 182 album, a Diplo EP, and a Joni Mitchell song. The California is also a US Navy ship, maybe you meant that one?

    Please help, I'm very confused. Which California are you referring to? I'm sorry but this conversation simply cannot continue until you clear that up. If it's the California Nebula, I must admit though that I've yet to visit, though the pictures look lovely this time of year.
