    ‘ Today’s blog is going to be a short one as I am heading out to the eye doctor in a bit to have my eyes dilated, which, second to being on an airplane, is my least favorite activity in the entire world. Speaking of flying, US Magazine recently published an article about celebrity riders…

    Oliver’s San Francisco House from “A Lot Like Love”

    ‘ I have made no secret over the years of my obsession with the 2005 romcom A Lot Like Love.  And I thought I was quite well-versed in its locations.  So I was shocked when fellow stalker Tovangar2 (you may remember him from this post) published a comment on my site in November 2015 alerting…

  • The “L.A. Story” Intersection

    The “L.A. Story” Intersection

    ‘ The locale from L.A.
