Still, it doesn't matter, because the four-person rate has nothing to do with me because I'm not telling them four of us instead of two are going to be in the room on Saturday. I don't feel bad about that at all, either; I figure, when I went to Chicago with my mother and one of the women in the room right next to us brought a guy back to her room late one night and they had loud sex interspersed with loud sexy banter (the walls were very thin) until early morning-- I figure, you know, she didn't pay extra because she brought a guest back to the room one night, and in the extremely unlikely event that a hotel employee notices we suddenly have four people in our room instead of two I will easily and simply explain it by having sex with meara.

Me! Yipee!
(I seem to get a lot of "straight lines" in COMM)
Never underestimate the importance of the straight man in the joke.
Works on several levels, that.
Gus, in Natter, who truly gets it one.
There you go. The thing is called "whisky" after all, which is a foine true-Gaelic wrod, originated by the residents of the Green Land, without the interference of these Myellsian bastids.
There are ten people in the States who will decipher that last. Two are on-line. Welcome to the Buffistas.
