is frequently to the beat of,

THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE

It can actually sound pretty cool at night around the square, cars taking turns with the chant.

Of course, if you're a Walkerville resident, it might get a little old, I suppose, by 2:00 in the morning...

8. Cool neighborhood...

Probably worth putting up with the noise... ;)

You ever go the the Willy St Parade/Fair? The guy with the Cadillac Bubble-mobile is a friend of mine--super fellow!

10. Almost every year -- You can't miss the bubble-mobile

The fair has moved a block away from us since we moved here (it used to start right on the corner), but it's worth the walk.

One of the things I've liked about it is that it hasn't entirely succumbed to tourists yet (though it's getting there), like so many other larger local festivals. Guess I can't blame people for wanting to be here, though.
