This man works as a lawyer, but he is also owner and landlord of at least one apartment building in the West Los Angeles area. As a tenant of his for about 1 year, I found him to be a …

Since 1993, I’ve been graced with the presence of Maurice Bernard playing Sonny Corinthos on “General Hospital”. I have a few favorite actors on the show, but I like to watch Maurice Benard because he adds so much flare and sex appeal to Sonny.
Unlike the other actors on “General …

Alan Johnson is the current shadow Home Secretary in the British Parliament, and he is also one of the most senior politicians in the opposition Labour Party. To a lot of people, including me to some extent, it was a bit of a surprise when he was chosen for …

Several years ago, I would watch Kurt Warner as he played for the St. Louis Rams and remember not liking him too much. Part of that was the fact he had one his second league MVP title and I was afraid he would tie Brett Favre with three. The …

I was just reading about Vernon Gholston not too long ago and remember how big of a star he was coming out of college. As I kind of guessed would happen, he, at this point in his career, has not lived up to his NFL potential and is getting …

I like Jake Gyllenhaal because he’s one of those actors that are a required taste; you have to watch his movies to really appreciate his talent as an actor. I was actually surprised to see that even though he has been getting a lot of publicity, his resume was …

A few years ago, the San Francisco 49ers had an opportunity to choose Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers with the first overall pick in the draft. They went with Alex Smith instead. Rodgers is now entering his second season as the Packers starter after putting up impressive numbers …

Eric Cantona was my hero when I was a kid. An intriguing Frenchman who had almost single handedly led Leeds United to the league title, before signing for Manchester United and doing exactly the same thing. He was a fans favourite and was quickly becoming the idol of the …

As a regular watcher of Happy Days, I was one of those who has watched Scott Baio go from young boy to 46 and pregnant, so to speak.

Another X-Factor ex-contestant, Ruth lorenzo is probably one of the more memorable talents from that show in recent years.

Ken Anderson looks very arrogant and he is built pretty good which means he is …

The first time I saw Cat Deeley was a couple of years ago when she became the host of So You Think You Can Dance. The amazing things about reality shows like that one is that they assume we know who these females are. I’d never heard …

The Undertaker wrestles in the WWE and he is no doubt one of the most favored wrestlers of all time as well as one of my personal favorites. First of all the gimmick this guy has is priceless and will never get played out. He has this walking dead …

Unlike most of the people who like Sarah Jessica Parker, I began watching her in film long before Sex and The City franchise was even thought about. I think it’s amazing that she has been able to create such a successful career for herself.

The one reason I never trust NFL teams with an aging quarterback over the age of 32 is because of how quickly a passer can go from being a star to a guy who should be riding the bench at best. Jake Delhomme is one of those guys who …

Well, we’re halfway through the off season and I see Green Bay Packers safety Atari Bigby still hasn’t signed his restricted free agent tender.
