CHIP SAUNDERS was the San Franciscan Who Does Not Discuss Rent a record never to be broken 1999-2004. Priori rents rose to the arena of $2 sq./ft., the arena of a bathtub. He was the Night Watchman and a lot happened on his watch, a lot of magazine reading and soda pop drinking. He established a curtain around the bathtub with private entrance. A love for the radio such he built a shelf with Ground Fault Circuit Interruption should it fall; tub sweet tub, he lined with foam, and on the shelf installed a toaster, but now needed a mini-refrigerator to keep his butters. But how, on such wages? Chip worked many the Double Shift and took holidays at time and a half so a walk-in closet could be annexed, it was a personification of the American Dream, this room he carpeted, and, owing to regulations destroyed on his behalf by a certain presidential administration, now had extra money in his pocket to cover its walls with "knotty pine" paneling that possessed nothing of the kind, just a lithograph laminated on a substrate full of formaldehyde, that was his demise.
