The All American Burger from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”
‘ I was devastated to learn back in early 2010, thanks to fellow stalker Amanda, that The All American Burger on Sunset Boulevard, which masqueraded as Clown Dog restaurant in 1991’s Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead, was being turned into a Chipotle Mexican Grill. I never expected that the historic eatery was going to…

Stalking Barry Manilow, Part II
‘ Last time I was in Palm Springs I did a little stalking of Barry Manilow’”‘”‘s house, but thanks to Richard, who posted a comment on my previous Barry post telling me that Mr. Manilow’”‘”‘s home actually has TWO addresses, I was able to stalk the other side of his house this weekend while I…

The “Object of My Affection” House
‘ The Object of My Affection is my least favorite of all the Jennifer Aniston movies. I remember watching it in college and being thoroughly disappointed. I mean, come on, it has to be one of the crappiest movies ever made. But if we’”‘”‘re being honest here, has she ever made a good one? LOL…
