Friday’s column (read it here) follows up my Dec. 2 column about how the Outdoor Man store on the sitcom “Last Man Standing” is based on Rancho Cucamonga’s Bass Pro Shops.

One of the background actors on that series is Greg Schmauss of Rancho Cucamonga. He’s one of the store employees who has no dialogue but fills space in the background. Schmauss supplied the above photo — he’s the one at left, with Tim Allen — and told me about working on the show. Imagine, two Cucamonga connections to one sitcom.

So no one feels left out, Friday’s column also has a clutch of Valley Vignettes and other items from around the valley.
