  • Caesars Palace from “The Hangover”

    Caesars Palace from “The Hangover”

    ‘ My recent trip to Las Vegas with the Grim Cheaper was magical, due in large part to the fact that we stayed at Caesars Palace.  Neither the GC nor I had ever stayed there before and, while planning our trip, I decided to see what the rates were.  I happened to find a remarkably…

    Latest “L.A.” Mag Post – The “Taken” Apartments

    ‘ Don’t forget to read my latest Los Angeles magazine post here – about the apartment building from Taken, as well as my review of Taken 3.  My articles typically get published in the late morning/early afternoon hours. ‘

  • Mr. Hart’s Mansion from “Nine to Five”

    Mr. Hart’s Mansion from “Nine to Five”

    ‘ One of my favorite movies growing up was the 1980 comedy Nine to Five.  I would watch it on an almost daily basis (no joke!) and practically had the thing memorized.  I can still belt out the theme song to this day, in fact.  (I am guessing the majority of my fellow stalkers can,…

  • Ed and Tori’s Coffee Shop Meet-Up from “Big Little Lies”

    Ed and Tori’s Coffee Shop Meet-Up from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ If the news reports currently lighting up the internet are to be believed, the drama that took place behind the scenes of Big Little Lies’ latest season is far headier than that which unfolded onscreen!  At the center of the dustup, per a recent IndieWire exposé, is Jean-Marc Vallée, the director of the series’…

  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    ‘ I am taking today and the rest of the week off to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family.  My mom and I are in charge of dinner this year (it’s my first time ever!), so I’m sure by the time this post is published, I’ll be knee-deep in turkey preparations.  I hope all of my…

  • Patterson’s Appliances from “That Thing You Do!”

    Patterson’s Appliances from “That Thing You Do!”

    ‘ After stalking the downtown Orange spot where the That Thing You Do! mailbox scene was filmed (which I blogged about yesterday), I dragged the Grim Cheaper just a few feet south to stalk the storefront that was used as Patterson’s Appliances, drummer Guy Patterson’s (Tom Everett Scott) family’s shop, in the 1996 flick.  Thank…

  • The Brothers and Sisters House

    The Brothers and Sisters House

    ‘ Got a last week from who wanted me to do some stalking of the house used in the ABC series . I’”‘”‘d actually gotten this challenge once before, but since I had never really watched the show, I hadn’”‘”‘t put much effort into stalking it. But then I saw the house on and he…

  • Merry Christmas!

    ‘ I am spending the week visiting my parents and therefore will not be blogging.  I hope all of my fellow stalkers have a very merry Christmas! Until next time, Happy Stalking!  🙂 ‘

  • Another Day Off

    Another Day Off

    ‘ I hate to do this again, but because I spent most of yesterday as a reader at the annual Read-In at the school where my mom used to teach, I did not have time to write a new blog post for today.  (The door decoration that the class I read for made for me…

  • Happy Presidents’ Day!

    Happy Presidents’ Day!

    ‘ This weekend was a whirlwind that included a spectacular Valentine’s Day with the Grim Cheaper, a (VERY crowded, but fun) trip to Disneyland with Miss Pinky Lovejoy of the Thinking Pink blog and her husband, Keith Coogan,  and seeing Air Force One in person (can’”‘”‘t get more presidential than that!).  I, unfortunately, did not…
