From the weird news dept: woman lived undetected in someone's closet for a YEAR

[SDGuy]

"A homeless woman who sneaked into a man's house and lived undetected in his closet for a year was arrested in Japan after he became suspicious when food mysteriously began disappearing." http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/05...index.html

That's it - I'm gonna inspect every inch of my home when I get home tonight. I'll bet there's someone hiding in the attic crawlspace...

It had to be a man's house. There wouldn't have been room in a woman's closet.

she must have been frightened. . .it's always scary coming out of the closet. . .

I have to give her bonus points for thinking outside the box.

My snoring would have tipped anyone off!

excellent, $tevie!

some people have closets that are in areas of their homes rarely visited, like a basement or spare/storage room.

I'm glad you said it

Cleaning would have tipped me off.

Japan? If it was Tokyo, that close would be a 500,000 yen/month sublet!
