In honor of the chat session I just left, here is my 4,000th post joke...

You Know You're at a Bad Hotel When...

1- The "complimentary" paper tells you that President Kennedy has died.
2- The mint on the pillow starts moving when you come close to it.
3- The "magic fingers vibration" is supplied by giving a quarter to the town epileptic.
4- Yellow crime scenes tape is in your trash can.
5- The pictures are not placed for decoration but to cover up recent bullet holes.
6- You have to wait until the guy next door is done with the towel so you can use it.
7- There's a chalk outline in the bed when you pull back the covers.
8- The desk clerk has to move the body in order to get some ice for you.
9- The Only TV station you can get is a porno channel with roseanne on it.
10- The wake up call comes courtesy of police helicopter.

That doesn't sound like a bad hotel, Deborah, it sounds like the Bates Motel!

Congrats on 4000 - WOW!

Congrats, Deborah, on the 4000th!

That is funny: we stayed at the Sheraton at CDG a few days after it opened.

When I turned the TV on, it started with no. 9! I must say Josette was quite alarmed at what kind of places I had started making reservations...

Congrats Deb!! Chicken Dance What a long strange road we've traveled. From aol to slow trav.

As to your joke? NOT FUNNY. I stayed in that hotel!!! Actually more than once. It is why I started slow traveling and staying in apartments. I have always had the worst luck picking hotels.

Hey Deborah, congrats! Thumbs Up (And thanks for reminding us of your former name; was trying to remember it a couple of weeks ago.)

Thanks Guys!
Marcia, I'm booked at Melody Ranch. How about you?

Mary, you said a mouthful there! I sometimes think about some of the old gang. Like Robert and his girlfriend -- what was her name?
And Howard. I still can't figure out why he has never joined us here.
And remember that one guy who was ALWAYS trying to stir something up? Who was that, again?
