...When I take visitors around in my boat at sunset, they are just awed," says Stephen Muss, whose family owns the Fontainebleau Hilton Hotel in Miami Beach. "Where else can we ride in an open boat in winter, looking at a skyline on the horizon, cruise ships slowly turning around in the harbor, jets passing overhead, with the day ending in full color in the blue water of our bay? This is just a sensational place to live...
...Duke and Duchess of Windsor just before their wedding, and notes how hurt and surprised that naive gentleman was that so few of his friends had accepted invitations. He describes his rather comical romance with Greta Garbo, in which both of them circled like brilliant birds, not wanting to muss their pretty plumage with what would inevitably be a messy embrace...
...clearly are not saving much money. Merle Schotanus, president of the New Hamp- shire Timberland Owners Association, calculates that a cord of dry hardwood stores the heating power of $135.90 worth of 90¢ oil. He lops an arbitrary $25.90 from the cordwood figure to allow for the fuss and muss of wood, and arrives at a break-even point of $110 a cord for wood-burners.

But she, Eisenstein, and Alfred the mad Italian tenor keep breaking out of the mock tragic music into a perky little waltz...
...these ripples hardly rouse the water, or muss the bed, compared with the incidents of last year--the knifings, vigilante marches and the partially obliterated signs of "gger go home" painted on the walls of traditionally Irish and all-white South Boston High School. A picture of an overturned car in Charlestown made the national papers, and all three networks sent cameras and sound equipment to record fist-waving parents as they shouted "Never, never, never" along South Boston's streets. Over 900 citizens, mostly white and anti-busing, rode the paddy wagons to the local jails in the first...
