    Poolside Getaway

    ‘ My parents surprised us by booking a little poolside family getaway for the week, so I will not have any new posts this week aside from my usual Los Angeles magazine column on Thursday (it’”‘”‘s a really exciting one – I’”‘”‘m telling the story of my favorite only-in-L.A. moment!).  I will be laptoping it…

    The “Burning Love” Mansion

    ‘ This past February, thanks to Reality Steve and the E! Channel, I was introduced to the brilliance that is the Ben Stiller-produced parody of The Bachelor titled Burning Love.

  • Anaconda!

    Anaconda!

    ‘ No, the above title does not refer to the 1997 JLo/Ice Cube action flick (a movie I have never seen), but a episode of the same name. The other day while I was hanging out on the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, Mike (from ) called me and asked if I wouldn’”‘”‘t mind…
