Hi folks,

I'm checking out a great looking 2BR in Menlo Park tomorrow, but none of my potential housemates are around/interested. If you think we might get along, you should come.

It's in the Linfield Oaks neighborhood, barely over a mile from the entrance to Campus. It's fifties-ish, but it has lots of light, a big (gas!) kitchen, patios, tiled bathrooms, hardwood floors, and lots of nice details. Rent will likely be a hair over $1250/person before utilities. Email for more about the place.

Me:
-Male, mid-twenties
-Incoming PhD student in (computational) Linguistics, coming out of a BA/MA at The University of Chicago
-Enthusiastic cook and fairly frequent host
-Cyclist, but for the occasional car rental
-TV- and tobacco-free
-A little disorder is fine by me, but I vacuum/mop/tidy quite often.
-A fan of cats, but too allergic to live with them
-Other interests: Typography, photography, puzzle hunts, Tom Waits
-More: stanford.edu/~sbowman

Most interesting thing I'll have around the house (hopefully barring myself):
-A monochromatic lamp (if it's the only light in the room, you can't distinguish any colors)—There's a (harmless) long story there.
