You Know It's A Slow News Day When This Makes The Cut

For no reason, I happened to catch part of Inside Edition the other day. The story I happened to catch was about the "Brady Bunch Curse."

As you probably know, the Brady house, which was featured in every episode of the show, is an actual house in Studio City, CA. It's still there to this day (although it looks slightly different). And, as it was in every episode of The Brady Bunch, even though it's currently a private residence, it's still a tourist attraction.

The gist of the story on Inside Edition was that the woman who lives directly to the left of the Brady House has had her house up for sale for three months, yet has had no prospects. Inside Edition speculated that it was because of the tourist traffic scaring off prospective buyers. I, being naive, speculated that asking $1.3 million for a 2000 sq ft house with the economy and the housing market in the toilet was scaring off prospective buyers. But I think Inside Edition might be on to something here. Maybe there is a "Brady Curse" that keeps neighboring houses from selling.

That has to be it. I can't see any other reason. Inside Edition nails another one.

BOOYAH!!
