Kurt Cobain’s Former House
‘ While visiting the Pacific Northwest this past May, my good friend and fellow stalker Kerry took me to stalk a location that, at first, I actually wasn’t all that interested in seeing – the Seattle-area home where Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain passed away on April 5, 1994.

The Last Bookstore from “Gone Girl”
‘ I love bookstores – and books. Actual books, not the digitized versions. You will never catch me reading on a Kindle. I like the feel of a book in my hands, the physical act of turning the pages and the smell. I love, love, love the smell of books. The Grim Cheaper always makes…

El Cabrillo from “L.A. Story”
‘ Last April, in the midst of my slightly-obsessive L.A.
