I think I paid $200 per month in rent - 1992. ($400 total rent split two ways).

Better than living in the dorms and better than the Frat house - no rules.

I will be proud to be able to say that I used to live where the G. W. Bush Library now sits. I hope they don't put the OBL exhibit on the spot of my former living room . . .

maybe they will put it on the spot of your former toilet

That complex (on both the North and South sides of Binkley Ave.) is known to most as the Binkleys, but there is actually another complex back there further east called something else.

I still call 'em the Binkleys
