pahonu Posted March 28, 2021 Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 I wouldn’t say the forum has been exactly apolitical in the dozen or so years I’ve been a member. There have been lots of comments about more than one president over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody has political preferences and opinions but the great and unique thing about this site is that it has kept it's focus on the TV show we all love. If we let our focus slip we all will lose something special. Edited March 28, 2021 by miamijimf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump was one of the early "adopters", now it´s everywhere as you said.... Sticking to the forum rules I will refrain from commenting on any president's administration, past or present. At this time, Covid, no matter how it got here or how it's been handled, doesn't really matter. Right now the focus has to be how to get through it. I'm sure it would be a barn burner of a topic but we're not going to discuss it here. A cute acronym. and yes I agree it's stupid and selfish behavior that got us where we are, but let's skip the blame game right now and get back to more great pics of Miami! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators timm525 Posted March 28, 2021 Administrators Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 It’s always best to leave politics and religion off this forum. Two things that will divide and disrupt our great forum. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess everyone on the forum here knows that I prefer contributing new intel on MV rather than starting off topic discussions. So sorry for my laconic comment if that offended anyone, as my focus was on the acronym anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miamijimf Posted April 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2021 (edited) Art Deco styled buildings were not the only unique feature of older Miami architecture. These decorative screen doors were popular everywhere especially before air conditioning when people would leave their main front door open and let the breezes come in through their screen door. Don't remember seeing them anywhere else but S. Fla. We had a screen door like this one when I was a kid.

These decorative screen doors were very popular. Don't remember seeing them anywhere else but S. Fla. We had a screen door like this one when I was a kid. It definitely looks to be regional to South Florida. Art Deco detailing sometimes included objects rather than just geometric patterns that we’ve all familiar with. I’ve seen, flowers, people, fish and now flamingos depicted. Think of the plaque above the OCB headquarters entrance. It has nautical objects and a figure holding a ship. Many of the Art Deco buildings we have come to know and love on MV present more as a subset of the style, called Art Moderne, or Streamline Moderne. They are all related and of the same era. The massing and larger detailing of the structures better fit the Art Moderne aesthetic, while much of the applied ornament is Art Deco styling. This is typically true of Art Deco architect as opposed to Art Deco furniture, jewelry, etc... Edited April 5, 2021 by pahonu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of other forums out there where that kind of stuff can be discussed. I’ve got a complaint from another member on this. I’m not big on censorship so I will not edit the post but I’m asking everyone nicely, please no more politics or mention of our presidents past or present. No one ever agrees on that topic and arguments start over seemingly nothing. So let’s not even go there. Thank you. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
