Beautiful Stockholm at night, looking west towards Gamla Stan, with iconic City Hall in the distance, on left, in Kungsholmen. In my previous life, I was definitely born there.
A reminder of why I and my savvy, sensible friends -like @UdenCatherine - push back vs. the serial nonsensical public policy + misanthropy fm #HollywoodFL City Hall, both the City Comm. as well as its often imperious, feckless, highly-paid, thin-skinned bureaucrats. THIS! ☀️🌴🏖️😎. Hollywood Beach, March 2025
Looking east on Hallandale Beach Blvd./S.R. 858 August 2007 photo by SouthBeachHoosier Can you see me now? Can you read what it says?

Hmmm... maybe you need to take a step or two back from it, like a Pointillist painting, to see the whole picture. Maybe even back across the street to the corner of Hallandale Beach Blvd. and S.E. 24th Street. How's that working? Can you make it out now?
Many more interesting posts are soon going to be making their way off the draft page and into the blog, replete with photos to illuminate the point, but until then, please see some recent posts at parent blog SouthBeachHoosier, regarding 1. some historical perspective on the move of the U-M Hurricanes to the former Joe Robbie Stadium 2. the history of some of the City of Miami hijinks that caused Mr. Robbie to flee the Orange Bowl in the first place, and 3. the prospective sale of the Westin Diplomat Resort & Spa, the Alexandria Lighthouse of south Broward County. http://ce.eng.usf.edu/pharos/wonders/pharos.html
Small things make a big difference. So does attention to details. You'd think that'd be something the HB Police Department would care about. No, not so much.
After all they're the same folks who gave us the 'scarecrow' police cruisers at the beach, wherein empty police cars -left next to an unguarded parking lot- are supposed to, simultaneously, deter crime and keep the peace at one of the busiest places in HB on weekends, esp. three-day holiday weekends.
So when did we start using British spellings on Hallandale Beach documents? Did I miss the memo or City Commission vote on this?
