1. I should of known our hotel was going to be sketchy when I had never heard of the chain.
2. I now know our hotel is sketchy because i just dropped a deuce and the toilet is already plugged. I went and got a plunger from the front desk and the toilet acted like I wasn\'t even plunging. The ****er won\'t flush. Goddamnit.
3. There are a lot of interesting looking people standing outside on the balcony and it appears a family of about eight is living in the room next to us.

Strip clubs are one thing, escorts another. Plus, I will take my chances with the ASU girls.

It\'s on the main drag in Tempe. You\'re welcome. :D

You only get a thank you if I get laid.

Hell, hitting on a waitress only worked in Office Space. (And that stupid lottery movie with Nic Cage.)

But you\'ll get to ogle some hot ASU co-eds in schoolgirl outfits. (Too bad U of A girls are hotter. 8))

That may be true, but from what I have seen in my couple of hours here so far, the ASU chicks are plenty hot. A lot hotter than the West Texas chicks I am used to.

New reasons my hotel sucks:
1. Every 10 minutes for the last hour, the TV has been doing the cable checking thingie wear it beeps really loudly.
2. You can\'t turn off the light outside the bathroom. There is no switch anywhere in the room to turn it off. What the **** is that?

**** like that wouldn't happen at the radisson.
 
I just witness some drunk idiot attempt to climb the fence to get into the pool and fall off and cut his leg up on the cement. Good times. Maybe this hotel isn\\\'t so bad after all, thanks to the unintentional comedy.
Also, I went out to smoke and some guy asked if I had a \\\"piece,\\\" I assumed this meant a gun and I thought I was about to die, but apparently he has some weed and wants to smoke it. Because when I asked him what he meant by piece, he asked if I had some paper, a cigar or an apple.

That doesn't happen at the Radisson, either.



And could be worse: you could be in New Orleans, where I can tell you from personal experience the odds are 50/50 that a, umm, street vendor will ask you, "How much for your shoes, man?"

I have no idea what I would've done if I had told him "$50," and he had accepted. More disturbing? I have no idea what he would've done.

they carry glass waterpipes for guest use in the lobby of the radisson.
 
Two worst places I've stayed:

A motel in Houston where someone was shot outside our room during the night. We left not only the hotel but Houston the next morning.

A hotel in Dallas during the SUMMER where if I laid still for 10 minutes watching TV or trying to sleep the AC would cut off. When I asked about it, the manager said the AC was connected to a motion detector and would turn itself off every 10 minutes if it detected no movement i.e. "no one is in the room" as an "energy conservation feature." We changed hotels.

The best? The one in Houston where I was awakened at 6 a.m. by someone in the adjoining room screaming "Oh Baby! Ohh Baby! Ohhh, Bay-beeee!"

Sorry about that. We\'ll try to keep it down next time. 8)

Yeah, but he says at least you were gentle. :P
