Nope, not a birthday.
There was no hint in that scene, that they had any personal connection. So it was the kind of event where Lyle as Legionnaire, and Condo as reporter (his Reboot profession), would have been

Sensor appearance at a nightclub, IIRC. With Chameleon and one of the Triads?

Nope. Lyle wasn't invited to that outing. And Condo was more of a "serious" news reporter, rather than an entertainment/celebrity one.

I can picture the panel clearly, but I have no idea what the context is.

So some UP press event with the President? close enough! it was on Durla after the whole Dark Circle incident. RJ Brande (as UP President), and the new Durlan spiritual leader (the surviving Composite Durlan) address the UP for reconciliation. So does Orando's King, to add a new voice to the calls. Lyle was there as Legion leader, chatting and giving an interview to Condo as reporter. there was no hint here that they knew each other beyond that... though the writers' plan was for them to be revealed dating. this was set up with Lyle receiving a note a few issues earlier - Can't wait to see you - C!

Why does Ultra Boy tell Clark's whole class that Clark is Superboy?

Was this the impostor Ultra Boy from the story of the 5 Legion Impostors?

Funny enough, I barely remember the actual story! I remember the premise really well though.
Lessee...
When the White Triangle attacked Earth, the Legionnaires and the Workforce teamed up, with most working in pairs.
There were two who went solo, though. Who were these two?

Hmm...I'll guess XS (after all, who could possibly keep up with her?) and...Brainy I guess? He was sort of teamed up with Jan, but Jan was neither a Legionnaire nor a Workforcer at the time, and also, while they were working the same angle, they weren't exactly working together.

XS is correct!
Brainy is not correct - I didn?t count him as Cos (and later, Garth and Imra) also worked sort of with him, buying time and marshalling the forces so Brainy could complete his work. And Jan too of course
Andromeda left to fight Roxxas alone, but I didn?t count her as Violet snuck along and helped her at a crucial moment
There is one other, who specifically insisted on working alone

Also no.
Think about the workforce membership at the time

You got it.
Karate Kid insisted on going alone, as his martial arts required concentration that would be disrupted by a partner
XS thus also went alone
Other roaming pairs were
Leviathan and the female Inferno
Spark and Triad (who were very much nearby)
Spider-Girl and Evolvo
Apparition and Ultra Boy
Chameleon and Invisible Kid
Andromeda went alone but Violet followed
Live wire fetched Saturn girl, and they joined cosmic boy in coordinating / holding the fort while Brainiac 5 worked, with RJ Brande bringing Jan Arrah along for a last minute save
Kinetix was missing in space at the time Over to you!

Excellent question. That's a particular chapter of Legion history that I haven't seen referenced here in a while.
Which member of the Amazers escaped from the Shade's darkness cloud (before it was dispelled) and which one was discovered still trapped within it?

thanks, glad you liked it!
Amazers - Atmos escaped, and Insect Queen was discovered inside.

It was nice reading that certainly threw Star Boy for a loop ok... When Violet was possessed by the Emerald Eye, she tried granting her teammates' hearts' desires. Some of them manifested in very bad, strange ways. And some were also very benign Which Legionnaires' desire was simply: to have his/her opinions be listened to?
