Because who doesn't want to be regaled with the minutiae floating around in my brain?
That's what I thought.

I'm Feeling . . . Walkable
Courtesy of the SiL (sister-in-law): a site that lets you find out how "walkable" your location is. Hours of fun plugging in every place you've ever lived, as well as the homes of everyone in your family, all your friends, your exes, etc.

Funny thing about this. My score was 57. I'm within walking distance to public transit/metro (which leads me to a million places).
and
Bar-T was identified as a "walkable" local bar where I could grab a beer or two. Its actually a child care program.
I'm gonna have to disagree with my pathetic score of 57. signed, walking in Maryland.....
Yeah, we quibbled with that too. A fellow resident of Bunglowville that we both know argued that his low score was nonsensical, given his proximity to the train.
So the flaw is overlooking transit. Also, it overlooks things like, whereas his area is pedestrian friendly, mine is liable to get you flattened by four lanes of oncoming traffic.
And childcare program/bar, aren't they essentially the same thing?
