Searchin’ For the 50’s: Heartthrobs from Philly
Welcome to “Searchin’ For The 50’s!” I was inspired to do this segment when I was reviewing some of the things people were searching for that sent them to my blog.

Movie Misconceptions: Pulp Fiction
Usually this section is about music. But this post is about a movie. So, I'll call this particular post Movie Misconceptions. Let it be known, I'm not the biggest fan of movies.
