Fo Yo Mouth!
Spiked Popsicles, a bedtime story:
Once upon a time, a Miami girl fell face-first while chasing an ice cream truck. Then, she got canned from her Nintendo marketing job, which makes her a grownup, and the whole chasing-after-ice-cream-trucks thing kinda embarrassing. But who cares! Because all that gave her the idea to start Feverish Ice Cream truck, which three years later is coming to a standstill in a splatter-paint-popsicle-mural-outfitted brick & mortar in Midtown.

Road Trippers
Unplanned detours can be the best part of a road trip, but considering where the careers of Breckin Meyer, Seann William Scott, Amy Smart, DJ Qualls, Tom Green, Andy Dick, and Horatio Sanz are at these days, maybe it's better to just know where you're going. Thankfully, now there's Roadtrippers, a slick new discovery and planning tool that helps you:

Jam. Pony. - Beersketball
A Basketball Drinking Game invented by Minute Bowl
1. TEAM CHOOSE
-All drinkers must choose a team to root for and stick with such team during the entirety of the game. If one of the teams is from your hometown you must root for that team. If you are an alumni of one of the schools then you must root for that team. In the event that one team is a hometown team and the other is your former school then you get to choose.

Ummm... just tacos served from a station wagon next to a lucha libre ring...
Yep, true story. It's called Pancho Taco, it's out back at Wood Tavern, and here's everything else you need to know, now in prose:
The Arena: Although they won't actually let you moonsault elbow drop on anyone in it, the wrestling ring (located on the other side of the beer garden and dotted with picnic tables) pays homage to lucha libre via paintings of colorful masks, and portends that you're about to do something bad to Bret your Hart.
The Food: "No frills", yes-delicious Mexican street-style eats come in the form of $2 cheese quesadillas or $2 tacos that stay similarly authentic by stuffing homemade tortillas w/ marinated chicken and steak plus cilantro, onions & hot sauce. Oh, and each just happens to be cooked inside a 1964 Mercury Commuter station wagon, presumably on the grille.
They'll be soft-open this Friday, and next Thursday will bring a major kick-off party with free tacos. After that, they'll initially just be serving during Wood's bar hours, but will soon be open seven days a week for all your taco-wrestling needs. A development that's great, all the taco-eaters agreed.

Jam. Pony.
What’s hitting Miami next Friday, features Thievery Corp and
is completely and utterly free? If you
said PLUS Fest then you are right, and probably psychic, or at least
super-empathic.
Coming to a still –undisclosed locale in Miami, the event
gives you a chance to see Rob Garza of Thievery Corporation in a hyper-intimate
venue. The fact that attendees will grab
the first taste of Bacardi+ cocktails (all packaged in a can) is gravy… but the
kind of gravy you would actually want to drink.
To attend just rsvp on the Bacardi+ facebook page and you
will be informed when the location is revealed two days before the show –
though given your supernatural mental abilities, you probably already know
where it is.

Um, did Eating House's Chef Giorgio
Rapicavoli somehow just make two perfect foods better by creating Cap’n Crunch
pancakes? Is he also ready to give you $5 Tang mimosas, even if you're not Buzz
Aldrin? He sure is, in addition to plating Carbonara Eggs Benedict, chicken ‘n
waffles (w/ maple bacon and, naturally, spicy ranch), and his own breakfast
sausage, at EH's brand-new brunch, starting this Sunday.

While speaking to a guy from Manchester over a drunk game of ping pong:
"You know, LeBron James bought like four hundred-million percentage of Manchester United"
Well put, sir.

Hoops Sports Bar and Grill
If you’ve heard of and enjoy these “athletic competitions”, you need to head to AAA-adjacent Hoops, which took the chick who won Flavor of Love and turned her into just about the most TV-laden sports paradise in history, complete with overhead lights boasting badass basketball court attachments dangling below them, booth/high-top seating galore, and hot bartenders who’re either supplied with ref jerseys, or can also get you a sick employee discount at Foot Locker.

Guys Night Out
So my work day comes to an end and I am going through the usual branch-out texting to find which one of my friends has plans and how/if I fit into them. I've already gone out four times this week so I don't want to do anything crazy. So basically that rules out shots.
People at Play
Working your way up the
corporate ladder can be tough, which is exactly why you should climb those much
shorter metal ladders, then bulldoze the crap out of everything in sight at
manual-labor wonderland People at Play: The Heavy Equipment Experience.
Just a breezy 3.5hr Spring road trip away in Bradenton, the SE's first construction playground lets you climb into, and, like a gangster, do what you will with all the heavy machinery your Xanax has been annoyingly urging you to not operate for years.

Ongoing semi-delusional conversation with my boys on what minimal options the Dolphins have this season:
" Look guys, I got it. Put Bush at QB, Jake Long at TE and Matt Moore at WR. That should confuse our opponents. Call it " The Wildcrap"
Thanks Peter.

Oh Mother...
Dialogue as I’m leaving my mothers house after a quick visit:
I see her standing on a stool trying to reach for something on top of a shelf. Concerned for her safety, I interrupt:
"Mom, don’t you have a small stepping ladder somewhere?"
Mom: "Yeah, it’s around somewhere but I don’t know exactly where."
Me: "You should find it, standing on that stool is dangerous."
Mom: "So was giving birth to you but I went through it anyway, didn't I?"

Yes, please.
That awkward moment on a date when you get asked: "How come you're single, you haven't found the right one? What's your type?" and you don't really know what to say so you respond "Well, I don't really have a type I just need a refreshing person that has brains and a great personali... HOLY SHIT who is that girl on TV, I'll marry her right now!" Brief date, but this discovery was worth it.
Ladies and gentlemen ::pause for emphasis:: My Type:
She has other music out, but I like her non-album YouTube cover stuff the best... and that Ugly Mouth song. Her pipes are crazy good, she can throw some riffs on the guitar and play piano as well. Seriously wouldn't be able to leave my house if she were singing in it. Move over Christina Ricci, you were bumped from my #1 spot. You had a strong 9 year tenure. I'll send you a formal letter in the mail.

-EATING HOUSE-
In the name of all that is edible you must grab a bite at this place. Located off of S.W 8th street and Ponce De Leon there is a "Cafe Ponce" sign outside of this tiny establishment. Unbeknownst to the average shmuck, this unsuspecting coffee shop animorphs into "The Eating House” after 7p.m. The beer and wine selection is minimal, but the thought of the food at this place can make my mouth water the morning after a WAKA-Jager binge. If you don’t know what that is and you're single, click here and you’re welcome. Anywho, the menu is constantly changing and there are no reservations, no substitutions and no alterations. These people know food and you don’t. Just sit. Then eat.
Recommendation you ask? Cartainly. Two nouns: Fukin’ Amazing Chicken Waffles of Deliciousness. On the menu it's humbly listed as "Fried Chicken". I submitted a request to have them change the name to my colorful rendition. Still no response.
