via Huffington Post. By the way, the best way is the parameters for measurement:
-walkability according to Walkscore.com
-number of neighborhood coffee shops per capita
-assortment of local food trucks
-number and frequency of farmers markets
-number of locally owned bars and restaurants
-percentage of residents who work in artistic occupations
-how often words associated with hipness appeared on each Nextdoor neighborhood’s site pages
-Nextdoor’s survey of residents of the communities
And if you are one of those kinds of bloggers. Please, for the sake of humanity, keep it in your diary under your mattress next to your rubber band roll of dollar bills that you took out of the bank in fear of the recession.
Now that that’s cleared up. I created this blog as an outlet for somewhat intelligent and hopefully intelligible banter and commentary about things that bother me day to day. It is also inspired by and in honor of my favorite Muppets, Statler and Waldorf. Ya know, the two old guys who sit in the balcony and heckle during the show? Admit it. You watched the Muppets and still have the VHS copies collecting dust next to your Duck Hunt gun and Nintendo controllers.
Welcome to The Balcony. I hope you enjoy the show. Cheers.
