RVA Class of 2010 Superlatives: Nominations

Since most local high school seniors have recently graduated (or are just about to) we thought it’d be fun to put together a little contest reminiscent of the superlatives many of us voted on as we were getting ready to sport caps and gowns. You know, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth.

Off the clock with The Checkout Girl: The Real Housewives of All Time

Sick of hearing rich ladies complain about their first world problems? Take a look at who makes The Checkout Girl’s dream cast for The Real Housewives of All Time… and make sure to share your picks, too.

No rumors here: Thrift boutique owners celebrate third anniversary

Rumors Boutique just celebrated its third anniversary this past Sunday with a celebration at Hadad’s Lake. To honor this occasion, we spoke with co-owner Casey Longyear to take a closer look at the past three years, during which two recent graduates — with a dream of shirts, shoes, pants, etc. for all — became owners of one of Richmond’s most established (and beloved) thrift shops.

Off the clock with The Checkout Girl: What’chu talkin’ ’bout?

Child actors are an interesting bunch. At a time when they are too young to understand or enjoy it fully, they are adored by the world. Then, when the adorable becomes acne-ridden and the bowl cut become greasy with adolescence, they are tossed aside for the next big (small) thing.

Off the clock with The Checkout Girl: Hollywood Walk of Shame

This past week, adult film superpower Vivid Entertainment released a sex tape starring Kendra Wilkinson. To quote the never-officially-been-a-Playmate-but-has-appeared-nude-in-Playboy-several-times, herself: “It broke my heart.”

Off the clock with The Checkout Girl: Shoo be doo bop ba dow!

After 20 years, Law & Order has been canceled. It’s like the TV execs WANT an Internet riot on their hands! If I were the President of Television (totally a thing), I’d handle my business mighty differently and bring back the greatest television show of all time. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you… Full House: All Growed Up.

Off the clock with The Checkout Girl: Hollywood stole my childhood

The news hit me like a punch in the gut. Jennifer Garner and Jessica Biel are set to star in a big screen remake of, get this: Laverne & Shirley. I immediately hit the Google running and found it to be true. My Google powers also revealed that there are plenty of remakes in the works, courtesy of Hollywood. So I decided to share the horror (and joy) with you.

Off the clock with The Checkout Girl: SADIFT Club

Good news! Sandra Bullock got a baby and now everything is going to be ok! And with the adoption of little Louis, Sandra has become an official member of the “Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves” club. The “It” being parenting through adoption. You go, girl!

Off the clock with The Checkout Girl: Katetastrophe

Mother’s Day is nearly upon us. What? Already? Yes. Sadly, I only have two children and so am guaranteed, at best, two somethings, but think about moms of multiples. The Kate Gosselins, Nadya Sulemans, and Michelle Duggars of the world have it SO GOOD on Mother’s Day. They must, right? Why, then, is Kate Gosselin always crying?

Off the Clock with The Checkout Girl: The good, the bad, and the naughty

It’s so Sex And The City. It’s so giggling silliness after two appletinis. It’s so every crappy Katherine Heigl movie ever made. And, at this point, I’m sure men are confused. Is it a myth? Does it exist? Meanwhile, every woman knows it’s absolutely real. I’m talking about The List.
