Gretchen’s Ghost Story

Gretchen at CallenishDuring my recent trip to Scotland I had an unusually spooky experience. I was traveling with my good friend Meg, her husband Terry and their daughter Hannah who is 15. Hannah was my travel buddy on this trip and we shared a room in two of the three hotel/guest houses along the way. Hannah is a delight, and charged as I was with looking out for her when separated from her parents, I took my job seriously. Continue reading “Gretchen’s Ghost Story”

Guilty Pleasures Monday – Eric Close

eric2.jpgNow and Again there’s an actor that grab’s your attention from the get-go. Eric Close did that for me in Now and Again (LOL!) There was something boyish, charming and totally drop dead appealing about him. It was a shame that the show that got such acclaim as being the new 6 Million Dollar Man was cancelled. Shamefully, we could also no longer appreciate Eric’s lean physique and Boy-Next-Door good looks.

Luckily, he wasn’t jobless for long and is now a series regular on Without a Trace. I didn’t get into this show at the beginning, but now do not miss the reruns on TNT and the first runs on CBS.

It’s a great ensemble cast, although I wish Sam Spade (yes, that’s Poppy Montgomery’s name on the show) would stop sleeping with most of the men in the cast. Maybe this FBI Agent just needs to find a vamp like Ryder Latimer to stay faithful!

Anyhow, hope you’re enjoying this Guilty Pleasure Monday and if Eric every goes missing without a trace, you’ll know where to look . . .

Guilty Pleasures Monday – Adrian Paul

Adrian Paul from the Highlander SeriesSo many of you have mentioned this hunk, that I had to pick him for this Monday’s Guilty Pleasure.

If I had to select someone who would play either Ryder Latimer (DARKNESS CALLS, DEATH CALLS) it would probably have to be Adrian Paul. Sexy and sensitive. A warrior and a lover. Woo . . . Getting a little warm here this Monday morning!

What do you think? Could Adrian be Ryder?

FYI — There’s another HIGHLANDER movie – HIGHLANDER: THE SOURCE – that’s supposed to be released in September of this year.

Guilty Pleasures Monday – Jan Michael Vincent

Jan Michael VincentThis one’s for you Gretchen!

You probably know him better as Strongfellow Hawke from Airwolf. That was such a great show! I remember falling in love with him when I was a kid when JMV was in a Disney movie titled The World’s Greatest Athlete. For some reason, I remember JMV running against a bunch of athletes from Villanova, my alma mater.
