I could learn to sail

As you might know, I'm in the market for an apartment because I've only got one more month at my sublet. During my search I've run across some eye-opening specials like this one. Note the subject header "$70 / 3br - awesome luxury 3 bed 3 bath by the beach", and now take a look at the photos of the place. My first thought was: this cannot possibly be right. Then I saw it was for Rio De Janeiro. My second thought: I'm in the wrong part of the world. Then I saw that they're actually renting it for $100-$200 a day. That sounded about right. Well--to paraphrase Vincent Vega--it seemed excessive, but that didn't mean it wasn't right.

Then I saw this puppy. Rent is cheap, and how sweet would it be to sail up to work in this baby? Oh wait, Los Angeles is covered in concrete. Also, does that eviction warning mean one person in addition to the leasee? Now, granted I don't know much about sailing, but it seems a little dangerous to be watching Direct-TV while sailing a boat even if it requires less attention than driving a car. Regardless, hat one's out.

Looking for apartments is not fun, but I like how people include something utterly absurd in there. It breaks up the monotony of pages and pages of rent amount and addresses.
