I though this was a funny want ad (from our community newsletter)

"Young couple seeking 2 bedroom apartment in Jerusalem , ideally, in a central neighborhood. If you know of any apartments for under $1000 with working electricity and water, not holes in the roof or the floor, and not next to major road construction or across the street from all-night dance clubs, or the Hamas youth center."

(Of course, the funniest part of this request is the price!)

Not sure why this is funny.
Because they're willing to pay a ridiculously high price?

Funny. BTW, there is a post up that I could have dedicated to you regarding those who believe money is the solution to all issues.

Trilcat - Actually, I didn't even notice the price thing the first time I read it. I was interested in the basic level of problems that they felt they needed to specify in the ad. (Although obviously they were purposely writing this in a humorous way.) The price is a whole other issue...

SL - I started reading the post and was interrupted by the kids. I'll get back to it tonight. Let's talk soon!
