I just had to share this. I am on call in the hospital right now, and I went to check on a young man who had a heart procedure today. I asked him how he was doing and he said he was ok. I made a joke about the hospital room being sort of Spartan and he said "Oh, I have slept in worse". I asked what might be worse, and honest to goodness, he says "The roach motel in Panama City". Now, I just had to have him elaborate. He couldn't tell me the name, but he claims that some little place on the beach was crawling with roaches and there were rat droppings in the beds. He said he slept in the car. His story made my night

We were on a big road trip shortly after being married and stopped somewhere in South Carolina and the motel was just like that one in PC. It was late; we were tired and Merman would have stayed but I took one look at all the little creatures and said no way. Merman told the clerk with a straight face "My wife won't let me." He got his money back. ;-)
