sobe

Southern portion of Miami Beach. Locals do not refer to it as SoBe but rather as South Beach. Some overpriced restaurants but good beaches. Like in Miami proper, hard to find people speaking English in most of the stores.

Metrorail does not go into SoBe, so we had to take the bus across the MacArthur Causeway.

moscow

Capital of Moscow, Europe's largest city. Moscow is the richest city in Russia, but it's still somewhat poor. Moscow sprawls over 1000 square kilometers. Moscow is prone to disaster, such as with the recent subway bombing, university dorm fire, and water park roof collapse. Muscovites live in drab ugly prefabricated apartment complexes.

Moscow is the Third Rome and there will never be a fourth one.

springfield

1. Name of many cities. The largest and most well-known Springfield is in Massachusetts. It's home to the Basketball Hall of Fame. Springfield, IL is also well-known by elementary school students as a state capital, but otherwise, it's a backwater. Springfield, MO is even more of a backwater but it's home to SW Missouri State Univ (SMS). There are also smaller Springfields in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Oregon and Ohio. None of these are worth discussing.
2. The fictional town where TV's The Simpsons live. It's not supposed to be in any state; rather, it's Springfield, USA. Identifying it with any real city would be a real embarassment because this Springfield is home to a fake barf factory.

We drove through Springfield on our way to Springfield.

camden

Camden is a city across the Delaware River from Philadelphia. This is one of America's most economically depressed cities. Economic development has been restricted to the waterfront with sites such as Tweeter Center and State Aquarium. But interior Camden is ghetto.

Camden is at the foot of the Ben Franklin Bridge.
