So, I was sitting here after a long walk and some errands, and my door bell rang! (That is really not the right phrase, since the intercom makes this piercing noise, but whatever.) It was my friend I had vague plans with, who happened to be in the neighborhood, without her cell phone. So I hopped in the car, we drove out to the burbs and had our dinner-and-movie date. Perfect!
I kissed him, and I told him that I loved him. And I killed him.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So what % of people, when considering moving to a particular apartment, would google the address before signing a lease?
I find it disturbing that if you google my last address (even without 'Chicago' at the end) you get this: [link] Note the #2 search result.
(The link goes to a site where you can report and search for bedbug cases at specific addresses. For my address there were two or three tenant complaints of bedbugs, with a response from the management co. The dates on the posts are around the time I moved out (end of Aug, '09).)

I googled my current address after signing the lease, but before moving in. No bug reports!

In the waiting area, there is a toddler throwing up in a stroller. The parent has said she has no clothes to change her. Feel bad for the seatmates.

I just googled my current address - apparently there was a toy store in the storefront of the building. Now I'm sad - the storefront has been for rent the whole time I've been here.

The parent has said she has no clothes to change her.
She could go buy a cheesy souvenir shirt from one of the airport stores and put the dirties in the bag.
