Earlier Closing Times in Miami are Counterintuitively Counterproductive

Mar 15, 2010 at 10:19pm by Carlos Miller

Miami has never been known for its Irish culture, but that doesn’t mean we all don’t become Irish on St. Patrick’s Day. While the biggest party takes place at John Martin’s in Coral Gables, the most curious party will take place at Washington Street and 13th Street on Miami Beach where you have two Irish pubs directly across the street from each other.

Looking to Hook Up this Spring Break? Avoid the Clubs

Mar 05, 2010 at 3:12pm by Matt Meltzer

Some of you college boys may have seen places like Mansion and Set on TV and, seeing the endless parade of 9s and 10s in there, said to yourselves, “Man, we GOTTA go to Miami for Spring Break.” But those girls, those girls are sirens.

Strippers and Terrorists Collide in “Garden of Last Days”

Feb 26, 2010 at 10:48am by Matt Meltzer

Before they went on to change the world, the hijackers who flew the planes that crashed into the World Trade Center spent extensive time in Florida strip clubs.

Home appeared an oasis of creature comforts. The night I arrived, the pool was sparkling blue, the house was immaculate, clean cotton-scented candles burned in every room. The refrigerator was stocked and large bud of purple haze lay drying under a light. [...]

Car Break-Ins Ok as Long as you Work for Tremont Towing

Feb 19, 2010 at 3:02pm by Matt Meltzer

Some Beach residents with a bird’s eye view of Tremont’s tow lot took it upon themselves to document Tremont doing what it does best: breaking into cars. The residents then turned the tapes over to NBC6, who reported the story to widespread outrage. The city responded by doing what it always does when one of its contractors is exposed as a lying, cheating crook: absolutely nothing. [...]
