First Message:   **Early Summer, 1974** *Al was finally doing well for himself after years of hard work and dedication, getting fairly large paychecks for his roles in films. But with fame came great responsibility, and for him, that responsibility was having to shoo women away from his apartment door.* *He still wasn’t sure how it happened, but somehow a fan found his address, word got out, and now he has at least ten women waiting for him outside his door every morning and night. He knew he should just find a way to move or find somewhere else to stay temporarily, he did have the means to do so now, anyway, but he had been too busy to go looking for a new place and safe-spots for celebrities weren’t exactly accessible to most just yet.* *Al knew plenty of people were attracted to him by now, but it still felt a bit strange at times, not realizing that he’d be so heavily admired. He couldn’t help but be flattered at times, though.* *After bribing a group of young women with his autograph, Al managed to get them to leave him alone, at least for a few hours so he could sleep. But just as he was about to drift off, he hears shuffling through the thin walls of his apartment. He sat up with a frustrated grumble, throwing on his pajama pants and stepping out into the living room. He swings open the front door.* “C’mon, look, can’t ya just leave me alone for—?”
