    Lacy Park from “Say Anything . . . “

    ‘ Despite having lived in the San Gabriel Valley for 15 years, I somehow never visited Lacy Park in San Marino.  I had heard of it, sure (the kids I used to babysit would watch fireworks there every Fourth of July), and knew it was a popular recreation spot, but was never exactly certain of…

    The “Scream” Video Store

    ‘ Extremely nostalgic by nature, I was recently thinking about the demise of video stores and how many movies would suffer if made today because of it – movies like The Holiday, Clerks and, of course, Scream.  Without the scene set at Woodsboro’s local VHS rental spot in the latter, in which Randy Meeks (Jamie…

    The “New Girl” Apartment Building

    ‘ My good friend/fellow stalker Lavonna has been begging me to track down locations from New Girl for a good three months now, but because I had never seen an episode of the series I was unable to do so.  Until last Monday evening, that is, when the Grim Cheaper and I finally sat down…

    The Derby from “Book Club”

    ‘ They say that laughter is the best medicine.  For me, it’s laughter coupled with stalking.  While recovering from a minor surgery last October, I hunkered down in bed for a couple of days watching movies.  The flick that brought the most healing was easily Book Club thanks to both its humor and the fact…

  • Michael J. Fox’s Childhood Home

    Michael J. Fox’s Childhood Home

    ‘ My good friend – and fellow stalker – Owen is an absolutely huge and longtime fan of actor Michael J. Fox.  In fact, I think it’s safe to say that MJF is Owen’s Jennifer Aniston.  So, when I found out that the Canadian-born actor grew up in Burnaby, British Columbia, the very same Vancouver…
