    Village Cigars from “Just My Luck”

    ‘ When planning a trip, my M.O. is to pore over as many area travel guides as possible and highlight spots I think the Grim Cheaper and I might be interested in seeing.  I then pass the books along to him and he reads through all the passages I have marked, giving them a yay…

    Joseph’s Café – Where Britney Spears Met Kevin Federline

    ‘ Circa 2000, I thought Britney Spears was everything!  Obviously, I don’t anymore (a person can only go into a gas station restroom barefoot so many times before I start to think they’re someone I shouldn’t be emulating), but ever since watching the Lifetime biopic Britney Ever After two weeks ago, I’ve had the pop…

    Entertainment Recommendations to Beat the Shelter-at-Home Blues

    ‘ These definitely are some uncertain, scary times, to say the least.  The one silver lining to my dad’s recent hospital stay is that I binged a lot of TV, read quite a few books and listened to a bunch of podcasts, which means I have a slew of new entertainment favorites to share with…

    The “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” Park

    ‘ Today’s post was a true labor of love – one that required stalking a location three separate times and a massive amount of help from a fellow stalker named Michael.  While most of the locales from the 1985 movie Girls Just Want to Have Fun (one of my all-time faves) have been tracked down…

    Nicole Brown Simpson’s Gretna Green House

    ‘ You’d think I would be sick of all things O.J. by now, what with the recent airing of The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story and the many stalkings I’ve done of the various locations associated with it over the past few months (you can read those posts here, here, here, here, and…
