Just clicked through to read about something mentioned earlier : A 55-square-foot apartment is on sale in Rome for just over $69,000.

55 square feet. That’s 5’ by 11’. I mean, sure, it’s on the Piazza di Sant’ Ignazio , but $69,000?

I’d trust the story a little more, if it didn’t come from the Telegraph , where another featured story today is headlined: “Aliens have deactivated British and US nuclear missiles, say US military pilots.”

Maybe the tiny visitors wanted to be sure their Roman apartments weren’t destroyed.
