| American Spirit: American Folk Art Coral Springs Museum of Art | Daily from Sun., June 8 until Fri., August 15 | Northwest Broward | |
Boy, modern hunters have it tough. Those patsies have camouflaged gear, attractive scents made of animal urine, and custom tree lofts they can sit in to wait out their prey in comfort. Our forefathers had to use carved, wooden decoys just to scrounge up grub for the table! Think about that next... More >> |

Here's some trivia to bandy about when you're having conversation over cocktails. Ask who can name a band that's still intact 30 years after its inception.
