Correction: SFRTA Hosts Transportation Workshop in Broward on Wed. Nov. 19th, not 18th






In an email I sent out last Friday, I mistakenly said the Broward SFRTA event near the FLL airport, above, was on the 18th, when it's actually on Wednesday the 19th, a week from today.



Since I sent that email on Friday, I also received an interesting email from the City of Miami regarding South Florida planning that you might want to take a look at as well, since they'll have a hearing tomorrow to address the state's complaints about their plans.






The City of Miami has addressed/responded to the Florida Department of Community Affairs' (DCA) Objection, Recommendation and Comments (ORC) Report issued on July 18, 2008.

Not attending the Miami-Dade or Broward County SFRTA workshops: obsessive former SFPD Detective Adrian Monk, as fabulously played by Tony Shalhoub.on USA Cable.



In this screen shot from the show's pilot, Mr. Monk and the Candidate, which surprisingly, many MONK fans have never seen, Adrian removes the multi-colored push-pins outlining an important strategic element of the mayoral political campaign of Warren St. Claire (Michael Hogan), with skullduggery and menace supplied by the beautiful and beguiling mayoral candidate's wife, Miranda, played by the always gorgeous and spot-on Gail O'Grady, at top and below, who, it seems to me, has emerged as a sort of latter day small screen combination of Grace Kelly and Lana Turner. When she's on TV, I'm there!




(I can't be the only person who's noticed how busy O'Grady has been of late, what with being in the pilot of CBS' breakout hit The Mentalist, starring longtime SBH faves Simon Baker and Robin Tunney, on an episode of CSI: Miami, and more recently, on ABC's Desperate Housewives as a teenage boy's fantasy come true?

I was pretty pissed-off when NBC nixed American Dreams, the one TV show that reasonably portrayed the role of pop culture on the American family, warts and all, with something mkore than cliched melodrama, and captured the excitement of being in on something new.

Can't help but wish that the AD producers had been able to conclude a deal with DirecTV the way that SBH favorite Friday Night Lights has, though I missed last week's show.)



Adrian's rationale for removing the pins? They weren't evenly displayed on the board.

Plus, I think there might've been an uneven number of them. Classic!



Naturally, after being chastised for this, Adrian promptly places every pin back exactly in place, to everyone's amazement.



I don't suspect we'll see anything similar, but just in case, I'll bring some extra pins.
