Random Scandal Sheet for Sunday 5/16/10

What Miami (ahh ... vacation) is talking about this week:

It's like a modern day Tower of Babel down here! I've seen every Dexter so far, so I was expecting a little Latin influence and was clearly ready for some Cuban culture (I made sure to drive past Star Island with Gloria Estefan's Greatest Hits blasting out of respect) ... but between the socializing at the bars and walking along South Beach's promenade today to lunch at the Marina, I've overheard or interacted with Venezuelans, Brazilians, Puerto Ricans, Poles, Czechs, Pacific Rim Islanders, Israelis and the French. And that just represents the languages that I thought I recognized! When the European breasts walked by on the beach today, I was surprised (I'm not a prude, I just wasn't expecting them to walk past) at the toplessness but not at the fact that I overheard yet another language. Which made me think, is it that we Americans are too overloaded right now to afford a vacation and that's why Miami seem to be the mecca for multi-cultural tourists? [After all, my trip is somewhat subsidized in that I'm here to pack up a boutique shop and return its contents to the owner back home in Chicago, so I go on the clock later tonight.] As Rose would sing (thricely), Miami es agradable, Майамі приємно and מיאמי היא נחמדה indeed!
