Damn Canadians with their free health care and 70's TV shows!

So it's been about 2 weeks since I've moved from Snarksville USA- (Washington, DC) to Kensington, a cute small town with an all-American feel. But, unfortunately, they don't sell snark at the local farmer's market!

In order to feel my need for hyper-local news and gossip, and snarky commenters, (are you here yet monkeyerotica?) I looked for some local blogs- but alas, there seemed to be many blogs in MoCo, but far too many seem to be about parenting and lacrosse practice. I saw a couple blogs from Besthesda, Silver Spring, Rockville, and at least one from- close but not quite- Weaton, but alas, there was nothing from my own lovely Kensington.

So I've created this blog for myself, and perhaps for anyone else who might be interested in hyperlocal happenings. Yes that's the second use of the term "hyperlocal" and there may be more to come, since it's clever, and I just heard it first used a few weeks ago- on this lovel blog.

This name of this blog was inspiried by one of the more famous DC Bloggers. But who knew that King of Kensington was also a very popular 70's canadian TV show? So this premiere post will end with some very meaningless information about the King Of Kensington, old school style, with bell bottoms and tuques, eh? Check it out here!

Since the name "KingofKensington" was already taken on Blogger, (damn Canadians!) this blog is officially named THE King of Kensington. Please don't be overwhelmed by this information.
