Most men (and some women) are excited that NFL and college football season has started, but me? I’m more excited about the return of some of my favorite TV shows and the premiere of one “hot” new show! And believe it or not, there is not one reality show on my list! First, let me start off with the NEW show! A friend of mine — ok, so we’re not really friends in the “we hang out all the time” kind of way, but I met him a few years ago at a screenwriter’s conference in Nashville and we are […]
Why Khloe and Kourtney Are My Faves!
I have really tried to pull myself away from watching the mindless dribble that is reality television, but somehow those Kardashians keep pulling me in with their family drama! I just watched the conclusion of the “Kardashian therapy session” and my heart really went out to Rob Kardashian.

When I say “read”, what I meant was “listened to”, because I checked out the audiobooks from my local library. These audiobooks were read by Simon Vance, who I think was the perfect choice to read these books! For those of you who like to read the book before watching the movie, I strongly suggest you check with your local library to see if they have the audiobooks. You will not […]
