| | Venus: Bloomington, Indiana |
 | | In a state that hasn't voted for a democratic president since LBJ in 1964, Bloomington, or should I say Blue-mington, is a cozy respite of liberalism in a primarily red state. |
 | | Bloomington's combination of small-town charm, walkability, and the intellectual atmosphere and amenities of a big city make it a great place to study, visit, live, or pass time while figuring out who you are and what step to take next. |
 | | Bloomington's best breakfast, for the price and quality, are the thick buckwheat pancakes and home-roasted coffee at the Runcible Spoon, on 6th St. Its canary-yellow walls, worn tables and rugs, aquarium, and marine-themed collages evoke the home of an eccentric grandmother with a fish fetish. |
