Nicole Perez and Mark Harris – Still the Coolest
Sunday, September 6th, 2009
I first met Nicole Perez at Beavercreek High School during our sophomore year that began in the Fall of 1987. She and I were in Mrs. Joyner’s math class together, along with her friend Lance – who would later become my best friend over the next year. I immediately liked Nicole for her dry, witty, and occasionally biting sense of humor. It wasn’t long before the three of us were speaking a language of our own. And besides that, she was one of the most beautiful girls I had ever seen. Read the rest of this entry »
The Bad Girl Turns Nice
Saturday, September 5th, 2009
I have never had any real particular affinity for Shannen Doherty. In more recent years, her name has become synonymous with trouble – as she had her issues with cat-fights and drunk driving charges. And somehow through the vixenish characters she has played throughout her career, particularly on Beverly Hills 90210, she has developed a reputation as a real Hollywood bad girl. So it was quite a pleasant surprise to find her so nice and attractive when I got the chance to meet her at the Hollywood Show on July 18, 2009. Read the rest of this entry »

Most of my adventures are rather tame. It doesn’t take a lot of gumption to drive to a Presidential Library, eat at a Hard Rock, or go through customs. But on Monday, July 27, 2009, I enjoyed a little bit more thrilling adventure – which although I admit had a very low danger-level, it did have a bit of a nausea-factor. Mom, Bob, Denise, Ashleigh, Briana, and I went parasailing over the Atlantic Ocean. Read the rest of this entry »
And Cindy Pickett as Mrs. Bueller
Tuesday, September 1st, 2009
I can’t say that Cindy Pickett has starred in a huge number of successful films or TV series, although soap opera fans would cite her stint on The Guiding Light in the 1970’s as memorable. She has also done many guest starring roles in mostly dramatic TV series such as Magnum P.I., L.A. Law, and Murder She Wrote. But I personally have only seen two of the films in which she starred. The first was a rather crummy Stephen King thriller called Sleepwalkers. The second is one of the all-time great 1980’s films, a little opus called Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.
