So, the apartment I inquired about in Burbank that was too good to be true? I think it's part of a Nigerian scam! I got this email back:

Californians, have any of you waded through the Indian Gaming Propositions? I really need to do that, but I kind of don't want to.

Perkins, Kristen and I were AIMing about it. And like you, I should really read through it but everytime I try I get sleepy.

Exactly. I've been trying, but I just never make it through all the talky meat.

That's... odd. Are you supposed to fill out the application (with all your personal info) before you get to see the inside of the house?

Jesse, probably though perhaps not as many as Safeway?

Yeah, I guess we'll see if I end up in line behind a million people buying organic avocados and whole-grain chips!

I'm going to get that cute baby stuff!

Isn't Cooper actually the first son?

Yeah, I meant "third" as in "the one who isn't the other two."

Archie and Olivia still live in New Orleans, I think?

Wikipedia says they moved to Oxford, Mississippi after Katrina, but who knows whether that's current.

Ha! Peyton's the one with the this-one-is-not-like-the-other family name. Eli is Elisha and Cooper is technically Archibald Cooper.

Kat, sorry to say, it's a scam: [link]

Yeah, Tom. I figured. Oh well still looking for a place then.
