  • Michael J. Fox’s Childhood Home

    Michael J. Fox’s Childhood Home

    ‘ My good friend – and fellow stalker – Owen is an absolutely huge and longtime fan of actor Michael J. Fox.  In fact, I think it’s safe to say that MJF is Owen’s Jennifer Aniston.  So, when I found out that the Canadian-born actor grew up in Burnaby, British Columbia, the very same Vancouver…

    Marilyn Monroe’s Former Burbank Apartment Building

    ‘ Shortly before I headed to Los Angeles for my weeklong birthday celebration with out-of-town friends Kim, Lavonna, Katie and Kaylee (that’s Katie and Kaylee in the above pic), I came across a Curbed post that mapped 43 properties where my girl Marilyn Monroe once lived.  The blurb practically had me foaming at the mouth,…

    Marilyn Monroe’s Catalina House

    ‘ The most important item on my Catalina Island stalking list was the home where a very young Marilyn Monroe lived with her first husband James Dougherty during the years 1943 to 1944.  This was long before Miss Monroe became a Hollywood icon and household name, back when she was just a girl who was…

    The House Where Judy Lewis, Loretta Young and Clark Gable’s Daughter, Was Born

    ‘ Today’s locale is easily one of the coolest I have visited in my 13-plus years of living in Southern California, which is ironic being that it is comprised of mostly vacant land.  I am talking about the one-time location of the house where Judy Lewis, the secret love child of screen siren Loretta Young…

  • The Dakota

    The Dakota

    ‘ Today is the 28th anniversay of John Lennon’”‘”‘s death, so I thought I would devote today’”‘”‘s blog to him. I have never really been much into music (my idea of a music icon is Britney Spears, if that tells you anything!) so I was never a fan of John Lennon or the Beatles. My…
