Bing Crosby’s Palm Desert House – Where JFK Trysted with Marilyn Monroe
‘ Last month, shortly before I headed off to Switzerland, my dad loaned me the book Killing Kennedy, which he had just finished reading. Because there was a chapter devoted to my girl Miss Marilyn Monroe, he thought I might enjoy it. And enjoy it, I did. I could hardly put it down! The chapter…

Laverne & Shirley’s Apartment Building

It HAS to have been in movies.” And she was right. Bahooka has starred in…
