Madonna is in town. Anyone who knows me like, knows. They know the frenzy. The impulse of tagging along and going out for – of organizing – dinner at The Setai in Miami Beach because she might come down for dinner. Someone needs to confess: Was she even staying there that time? Who knows. Who […]
Why, oh why is it that difficult for non-millennials some people to get with the pronouns program, already? Nineteen years ago, I came to the United States of America to study journalism in South Florida, right. That’s almost 20 years ago, OK, and one of the first lessons my professors taught me at Miami–Dade Community […]
