People that live on my street that are cool

The guy that dresses like he's one of the 3 Musketeers. I don't know if he's a reenactor or just likes the clothes but his hat has a feather in it and he has one of those skinny swords.

Old man that lives across the street. We don't know his name but he always waves to us from the window when he sees us and talks to us on the street about places we should visit. The apartments he lived in were bombed in WW2 (one of 2 that fell on the town). He lived there before the bomb and moved in afterwards. He also has a really neat hole in his skull (it looks like a meteor crater and isn't gross I promise.).

Old man that walks down the street with a cane. He always stops and lets me pass (which is really an excuse to stop and take a breather) and I always smile and say good afternoon (Grampa said it never hurts to say hello!). We talked a bit today and he used to be in the navy. Which you can totally picture because he has kind of a navy hat on and looks like he should have a peg leg.

People that aren't cool

Whoever it is that insists on playing motown really late at night at high volume. I think it comes from the YMCA across the street.
