I don't understand! What is this "bellman" you folks are talking about??? I asked the check-in guy at the Motel 6 last week for help with my bags and he waved a shotgun in my face and told me to take a hike. But, hey, at the Econo Lodge they've got these great new-fangled ice machines (not to mention the vibrating bed)!!!

;o) -- obviously...

Oh, and Merry, wasn't it a "new worlder" who invented FREQUENT FLIER PROGRAMS??? Not to mention this site!!!
