Beware of luxurious hotels.

A lady decided to give herself a big treat for her 70th birthday by staying overnight in a really nice luxurious hotel..

When she checked out the next morning, the desk clerk handed her a bill for $250.00. She demanded to know why the charge was so high "I agree it's a nice hotel, but the rooms aren't worth $250..00 for just an overnight stay - I didn't even have breakfast!"
The clerk told her that $250.00 is the 'standard rate,' and breakfast had been included had she wanted it.

She insisted on speaking to the Manager.

The Manager appeared and, forewarned by the desk clerk, announced: "This hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference center which are available for use." "But I didn't use them." ''Well, they are here, and you could have."

He went on to explain that she could also have seen one of the in-hotel shows for which they were so famous.
"We have the best entertainers from all over the world performing here."
"But I didn't go to any of those shows.." She Pleaded.

"Well, we have them, and you could have." was the reply.

No matter what amenity the Manager mentioned, she replied,
"But I didn't use it!" and the Manager countered with his standard response.

After several minutes discussion, and with the Manager still unmoved, she decided to pay, wrote a check and gave it to him.

The Manager was surprised when he looked at the check.
"But Madam, this check is for only $50.00" "That's correct" she replied "I charged you $200.00 for sleeping with me."

"But I didn't sleep with you madam!" said the manager

"Well, too bad, I was here, and you could have."

If & when the next Presidential Debate happens

We should demand that the moderator's only functions will be as time and peace keepers.
(Maybe allow them a few questions.)

No more asking predetermined questions that were handed out prior to the debate so candidates can
brush up on a subject.

A moderator would never ask " If elected, is your goal to be President for life?"
"Why did you destroy all the transcripts of your meetings with Putin?"
"Why didn't you call out the National Guard on Jan 6th?"
"Is it true you wanted protesters shot so you could walk across the street and hold a bible up?"
"Why did so many of our undercover secret agents disappear right after you asked for a list of them?"
And the list goes on & on, but you get the idea.

Why not get down & dirty in the mud pit, watch 2 guys ask and answer questions only from each other?
Let's see who can think on his feet and is knowledgeable about things necessary to be Commander in Chief.

Plus we know TSF would never agree to these terms, he'd demand prior knowledge of the softball questions
he'd be asked. Then we'd have a huge talking point... "Why is he afraid to debate?"

Went to auction Saturday because of one picture on auctioneer's website

Had a large group of 5 gallon oil cans and this Derby one was looking brand new with a 60's logo. When I
started looking at them, up popped a Derby can with their first logo on it (30's?) and both the tops and
bottoms of both still looked brand new, both had very very minor paint loss with vivid colors. Bought both
of course, oh and check out what else happened at the auction. .....

How I got a magat to totally shut up

Was at an auction Saturday 60 miles from home when a stranger and I started talking about the auction and
weather and who we were and from, to feel him out I said "Sure looks like tRump's in trouble"

He went off on me like I was a Liberal (he got that right) with all the FQX/GOP talking points how Biden has
weaponized the law against his lord and savior all to win the election etc, etc, etc

He went on about how corrupt our legal system is today, this coming from a active duty police officer who
I'm sure has gone into courtrooms to testify. So to calm him down I said.......

"HEY, I'm a registered republican and we know the rich and powerful always tend to get away scot free" at this
he calmed down like a turned off light bulb and agreed with me, then I hit him..........

"But you know what they're charging him with is basically all the same stuff they charged his lawyer Michael
Cohen with and he got several years in jail, sure be interesting if he runs for President from jail"


At that point he walked away looking confused and dumbfounded.
