The “Why Him?” House
‘ I don’t like to think of myself as a brat, but I’d be lying if I did not admit to having brat-like tendencies when it comes to choosing what movie to watch with the Grim Cheaper on any given Saturday night. Typically I veto all of his recommendations straight out of the gate and…

Lake View Medical Center from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

"I am a Spring Princess!"

I read the entire tome – which was fascinating, by the way – in…
