Miami Celeb DJ Raises Funds For Big Brothers and Big Sisters Okay, so Dwyane Wade gets his County. But that’s only for the week (July 1-7) when he becomes a free agent and everybody in town will be lobbying for him to stay here with the Heat. Irie however has his own Weekend, and he’s [...]
Even Ford and Edison Saw the Impropriety of the Gas-driven Car. Henry Ford and Thomas Edison were good friends. (We didn’t know, either.) Ford, a fixture on the streets of Detroit since 1896, had worked for Edison at the Detroit Edison Illuminating Company.

BP. Call them irresponsible. Careless. Vile, greedy, profit-driven, nature-polluting, wildlife-poisoning, blue collar job-killing so-and-so’s. Strange, but true: In our struggling-to-get-back-on-its-feet economy, you can also call them job creators.

Commissioner Michael [...]
Not that Miami Beaches aren’t beautiful, but we, here in Miami, are lucky enough to be a boat-skip away from Bimini (Bahamas). There’s not much to do in the islands other than snorkel, dive, fish and relax, so if that’s not your scene, don’t even attempt the crossing (which can be treacherous at times). One [...]
This year the City Theatre celebrates the 15th Anniversary Season of the company’s acclaimed annual SUMMER SHORTS FESTIVAL, featuring two series of 5-20 minute one-act plays…and then there are the UNDERSHORTS. It’s all edgy, irreverent, and hilarious. So do you enjoy theatre? How about unexpected, award winning writers that push the envelope with innovative plays [...]
This summer’s spiffiest visual effect has nothing to do with CGI. It’s all about old-school comic timing. As a child of the eighties – and eighties film junkie – one of my first memories of Joan Rivers was as the voice of C3PO knockoff Dot Matrix in Spaceballs, or, as I like to call it, [...]
From Role Models to Living Arrangements with America’s Kookiest Auteur There’s something heartening about looking at John Waters bookshelves and seeing many of the same titles I once owned.
