I changed the email address cuz I'm not that much of a prick, but c'mon. Ignoring the spelling mistakes, the horrible grammar, the caps and the "international model " obviously added in, what would would obviously make me email this person. Maybe I can do it by hiding my email address.

Craigslist is also not really being much of a help. Here is one of the freaks fromn that fiasco.

Hi,
I am 25 yr professional guy. I need to join my job on Monday so need
room as soon as possible. I am very laid back guy. Very
friendly..donot be scared i am not over friendly. I would be home at
night or on the weekends. This deal seems pretty good to me. If u
feel the same call me at 571-xxx-xxxx. Feel free to ask any questions.
Looking forward to hear from ya
Crap. This is all I see in my mail box. Crap.



So I have wasted another day I will write more when I get back from work.
