Poppin’ a Third Wheelie

The best friend’s boyfriend is always a tough one to approach. You don’t want to get too close because what if they break up, and you don’t want to be too distant because then it will seem as though you’re not taking your best friend duties seriously enough by not caring. Either way, you don’t really win. I have, however, been lucky enough to have great best friend’s boyfriends in my life. Most of them actually care enough to talk to...

#tbt: Laguna Beach

  “Don’t Stop Believin’”  will always remind me of Stephen picking up Lauren aka “LC” for their date on the hit MTV Reality Series ‘Laguna Beach’.

I was obsessed with the fact that real humans lived their life this way in our country....

OH SHES JUST BEING MILEY

Ever since she cut all of her hair off, everyone has been hating on Miley. Most people don’t trust her because of all the child star meltdowns that have happened in the past and I’m here to tell you, I understand. Your apprehension and skepticism are noted but you might be wrong about this one. Miley was always annoying. Hannah Montana? Murder me. That movie when her (now/maybe) fiancé fall in love and her father dies? Completely...

The Rookery Does Father’s Day

We here at Rookerville wanted to pay tribute to our many fathers.  Below are a few of our thoughts on our fathers and father’s day.  Happy Father’s; from Rookerville.   Russ Stevens: If you know me, chances are, you have heard me say that I am my father’s son.  Each year that progresses, I find myself saying things I imagine he would, or behaving in a fashion I imagine he would.  This is not a bad thing, but it’s...
