    Café Figaro from “Jerry Maguire”

    ‘ Today’s post is a long time in the making.  Off and on for years now I have been trying to track down the restaurant where Jerry Maguire (Tom Cruise) got fired in the 1996 romcom of the same name.  I decided to actively revisit the search a couple of weeks ago and, this time,…

    Shopping, Shopping and More Shopping!

    ‘ I spent pretty much all day Friday Christmas shopping (I FINALLY figured out what to get Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, thank God!  And yes, it’s pink!), so I unfortunately did not have time to write a post for today.  I will be back tomorrow, though, with a whole new location.…

    The World’s Largest Collection of MM Memorabilia and . . . A New Fiance?

    ‘ Last week, while stalking in Hollywood, I dragged my mom to the Hollywood Museum, which is currently exhibiting one of the largest collections of Marilyn Monroe memorabilia in the entire world.

    The “Punky Brewster” Grocery Store

    The 40 Year Old Virgin

  • The “Four Christmases” House

    The “Four Christmases” House

    ‘ Today’s location is a big one, my fellow stalkers!  Well, it is for me, at least, being that it took me years to find it, as I mentioned in last Friday’s post.  Yes, I am talking about the ultra-modern and gorgeous hilltop home where Brad (Vince Vaughn) and Kate (Reese Witherspoon) lived in the…

    Halloween 2011 with Matthew Lillard

    ‘ Well, the stalking gods have definitely been smiling down upon me as of late because this year I experienced what was quite simply the Best. Halloween.

    The Swordfish Hostage Scene

    ‘ This past weekend, my parents, my fiance and I drove up to Ventura for a little weekend vacay.  And I was absolutely floored to discover – thanks to my new favorite stalking book – that the hostage scene gone wrong from the 2001 movie Swordfish  had been filmed in the coastal town!  But, while my stalking book stated that all…
