the rules are different here skip to main skip to sidebar the rules are different here musings about life in the city of miami and south florida sunday june 17 2007 long time no post it s been a while since i last posted sorry about letting the blog go dark for a few months but life has been moving at a pretty quick clip reading the miami herald the other day reminded me of the first post i wrote back in february apparently i m not the only one with chicken rooster neighbors it s a fun article and really proves how here in south florida people make up their own rules needless to say in addition to this article there are more musings about south florida that i will endeavor to write about from people eating their groceries as they shop to others who find no problems with letting their kids play kickball in a store and hitting shoppers miami is a gem among cities here s a link to the friday june 15 2007 article the miami herald on some in this town who are trying to clean up the chicken mess enjoy posted by 7zero at 6 19 pm 1 comment thursday february 22 2007 bright lights big city snow a fire station and karma plus a bit extra my last post a couple of weeks ago touched on my feathery neighbors a few houses away yes the pair of roosters and probably a few hens now whenever i m outside and i hear their sounds i think a bit differently the post also brought led to a few comments about how different our city is from block to block much less zip code to zip code in the same thought as block to block i headed to the big apple a few days ago more like two weeks ago and after we took off we headed east and i took a look outside at this crazy town we call miami and wondered just how many different rules there are for the myriad of blocks streets and neighborhood i figure there must be tons so anyway back to new york city and its relation to the roosters it s a crazy town for sure but as i waded through snow ice and something called ice pellets i really missed miami not because of the warmth but because of the routine sounds by this of course i mean you guessed it the roosters though i was staying in a pretty nice hotel my window was about 14 stories above a fire station and though i busted on the roosters a few weeks ago karma got me good see the fire station must have been blocked by traffic quite a bit because about once an hour during the evening i d say until around 11 00 pm i d hear the sirens of a fire truck or rescue unit trying to get in or out of the station don t get me wrong this isn t about the great work the fdny does i have mad respect for them it s just that i missed my roosters in reality the siren s weren t as bad as the midnight garbage and delivery trucks which seemed to make as much noise as possible funny what you can get used too now onto a rule i ve just seen broken and thought it worthy of a mention here over at the coconut grove grapevine they ve been following the whole mercy hospital land use rezoning crazy tall condo project being proposed i m not getting into that mess it s too complicated and besides no roosters allowed on that side of us1 i m sure what caught my eye is a headline on the miami herald s online edition which read balloons show planned high rises viscaya skyline impact the rule broken here always double check the spelling of a national historic landmark in your neighborhood people are bound to notice and wonder who s checking these things out enjoy posted by 7zero at 8 35 pm no comments labels coconut grove roosters vizcaya wednesday february 07 2007 it s a small small i don t want to finish the title of this post because large companies are on a roll lately issuing cease and desist letters to bloggers large and small check out what the pork people did to this one blogger and her response needless to say these here blogs and our community have power as soon as i launched this blog i found great support from my fellow south floridian s who blog one is the florida masochist apparently he s written about how different the rules are in florida for quite a while and he s done a great job don t worry masochist as a former journalist with integrity i may add i wouldn t steal another s material here s a link to his post on my post very circular kind of thing i love it attribution is key and the only way to build respect i ll always link back to an original source if i use it speaking of respect here s a question to those that read this humble blog do your neighbors have roosters i moved out of the gables in 2005 after my landlord had to sell my building because of the crazy property taxes i wound up in 33133 technically it s not in coconut grove but i feel as though i live in it anyway i m in the grove almost every day and love the atmosphere the history and the people when i moved out i bought a duplex near the publix on 27th and quickly discovered my neighbors have roosters not one but two these poor birds have no idea what they re programmed to do which is namely crow when the sun comes up or at least that s what the cartoons always told me they do it s been a long time since i ve watched good cartoons but that s another subject for another blog so roosters anyone this ain t the gables it s 33133 which means it s miami where rules are mere suggestions thoughts posted by 7zero at 9 51 pm 4 comments sunday february 04 2007 miami where the rules are different greetings salutations welcome welcome to the rules are different here the name of this blog is based on a 1980 s tourism slogan designed to attract visitors to florida if you live in miami or south florida i m sure you ve noticed that things in this part of the world don t always conform to established social or societal norms almost three years after logging into blogger i ve taken the plunge into the blogosphere they say there are three stages in a bloggers life 1 you lurk and read 2 you comment on other people s blogs 3 you start your own blog so here i am the purpose of this blog is simple to share ideas start conversations and discuss what s going on in and around miami no crazy political rants though i do follow what s going on and vote at every possible occasion that said i m a pragmatist i m open to ideas that are practical and sustainable and think that anything that won t screw things up for us or anyone else is probably a good idea i ve added links to few blogs that i have been reading posting too and have prompted me to jump online i give props to them for keeping me informed enlightened and up to speed with what s going on if you have thoughts on subjects ideas or news please feel free to share all are welcome posted by 7zero at 4 44 pm 5 comments home subscribe to posts atom about me 7zero miami florida united
