Similar in temperament to the baby marsupial that the name implies, a local joey is someone that loves to hop around their locale of choice (town, campus, web) excitedly looking for new and interesting things. The local joey is usually well known, affable and fun to be around. Unlike home town hero or fixture, local joey (or LJ for short) is always said in a very positive connotation.
