Big Action.com Feb 27, 2006 $2000/mo: 1BR, Last Residence of Jim Morrison, Utilities Incl. Looking for an apartment in Los Angeles is both miserable and weird. During the last two weeks of hunting, I've visited dozens of pads and seen only two mildly remarkable things. These, I will share: Mildly Remarkable Thing No. 1: While being shown by a vacant and otherwise lovely 2 bedroom, 1 bath on Gennesse, south of Melrose, I try to open one of the bedroom doors and it only gives a few inches. It's chained shut from the inside, and I can hear something moving. ME: I think there's somebody in... MANAGER: Who's in there? GUY: Nobody. MANAGER: Who's in there? GUY: Transient. MANAGER: You're not supposed to be in there. GUY: But I am. (Slams door shut.) ME: Outta here. Mildly Remarkable Thing No. 2: Finding this place advertised on Craigslist: "$2000 / 1br - *ROCK LEGEND'S FORMER APARTMENT!* Special residence for only the most discerning individual~ The last known U.S residence of Jim Morrison ("The Doors.") at 8214 W. Norton Ave, West Hollywood. Walk to the Sunset Strip. Fully furnished upper 2 BR. 1 1/4 bath turnkey. $2000 mo. includes water. Coin laundry." bigaction.blogs.com/big_action/2006/02/2000mo_coin_lau.html
