    Just Another Day In L.A.!

    ‘ On Monday, I decided to do a little stalking of the horror movie Scream 2, a movie which I am sad to say was nowhere near as good as its predecessor. But since I had found the address of the fraternity house used in the movie and since the location fit in with my…

    Whitney Houston’s Drug Bust

    ‘ Back in January of 2000, Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown had a little scuffle with the authorities at Keahole Kona International Airport. So, since I just happen to be in Kona, I had to do a little airport stalking. 🙂 It seems Ms. Houston was departing from Kona after a vacation on the Big…

    The Culver City Hobbit Houses

    ‘ I have a major affinity for unique architecture.  So when I came across this CurbedLA article about the Lawrence and Martha Joseph Residence and Apartments, a grouping of Storybook-style structures in Culver City colloquially known as the “Hobbit houses,” I just about foamed at the mouth.  The complex looks like something straight out of…

    Blue Blues Café from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ Two episodes in to the latest season of Big Little Lies and I am still missing Blue Blues, the café that figured so prominently in Season 1.  As the Huffington Post recently stated, the loss has left a “Venti cappuccino-sized hole” in my heart.  So I figured it was only proper to devote a…

    Win A Date With Tad Hamilton!

    ‘ Being that I am completely obsessed with Josh Duhamel, one of my favorite movies of all time is (don’”‘”‘t laugh!) Win A Date With Tad Hamilton! In all honesty, the only thing I don’”‘”‘t like about Win A Date is the ending – Kate Bosworth so should have chosen Josh over Topher! 🙂 Otherwise…
