    ‘ Today is the 28th anniversay of John Lennon’”‘”‘s death, so I thought I would devote today’”‘”‘s blog to him. I have never really been much into music (my idea of a music icon is Britney Spears, if that tells you anything!) so I was never a fan of John Lennon or the Beatles. My…

    Four ‘N 20 – aka JJ’s Diner from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, fellow stalker Brandon (the very same stalker who told me about the Skyline Residence from fave movie Crazy, Stupid, Love., which I blogged about here) emailed me a list of over twenty Parks and Recreation locations that he had managed to track down.  The one locale on the list…

    Loretta Young’s Former West Hollywood House

    ‘ Once I discovered that Loretta Young’s Palm Springs house (which I blogged about on Tuesday) was not, in fact, the place where Judy Lewis (the legendary actress’ secret love child with Clark Gable) learned the truth about her birth, I set out to track down the location where the encounter actually did take place. …

    Merv Griffin’s Former House – and Some Big News!

    The “Brady Bunch” House

    ‘ Ever since I saw the “Silver Platters” episode of about 25 years ago and watched Marcia, Greg and the gang do their “Keep On Groovin’”‘”‘” dance, I was absolutely hooked on the show! I still find myself getting sucked into episodes every now and then if I happen to catch them on TBS. So…

    JFK and Jackie’s Former Georgetown Homes

    ‘ Considering how much I love history, I know shockingly little about former President John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline.  So I was thrilled when the Grim Cheaper gifted me with Jackie, Janet & Lee: The Secret Lives of Janet Auchincloss and Her Daughters Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Lee Radziwill last Christmas.  The 2018…
