If they won't take cash, try tipping the staff with food. Buy a nigiri or a ham sandwich from Seven Eleven. and hand it to the doorman as you're coming back to the hotel. If he seems reluctant to accept, just put it into his pocket with a smile. It may be a good idea to mix things up a little - bring him a mini-tub of Haagen Dazs or a porn mag every so often. Very easy to find in any neighborhood convenience store. It ain't right not to tip. It ain't right, I tell you. |

Good job jib, you caught another one! Soon enough you'll have enough in your sack to have your own field of white water buffalo!
Way to go, jib71! :D |

I can't help but remember a Spanish joke where some of society's outsiders are huddled around a well. Transfixed, they are gazing inside and slowly chanting "twenty seven, twenty seven, twenty seven, twenty seven..."
A passing stranger is struck by the sight, becomes curious and makes his way over. He steps up to the well's edge so he too can look down. A tapering cry is released followed by the faint sound of a splash. The chant changes: "twenty eight, twenty eight, twenty eight, twenty eight..." |
