I have always been fascinated by old hotels and motels that have these
COLOR TV signs out front, where each letter in COLOR TV is in a
different color. How long has color TV been in existence now, about 140
years? I mean, really, but these signs are acting like this is some
sort of brand new thing that nobody has ever heard of before.

This one even says "by RCA" on it.

Now I am waiting to see one where the sign says "We have electricity!"
or "Now Plague-Free!" like that is supposed to impress people somehow.

Where's the one that says refrigerated air?

we have Cable

Cable? What's that? Is that some kind of dishwashing liquid?

Judging by the age of the sign, Is it one of those TV's that have the
dials and you need a cable box for the cable? And you have to hit the
crap out of it to even turn on?

And does the room come with a phone like the one in Larry's motel room
at the Cherry Pit?

I'm so excited by your sign! I'm just hoping the rooms come equipt with
an ice box!

The downstairs rooms have running water from 3:00 - 7:00 p.m. most days!

And let me guess? You only get electricity. from 12pm to 3pm?

puts a quarter in the vibrating bed - i just *love* this place

Is there turn down service? Or do they just not turn down service to
anyone?

You can't have running water AND electricity at the same time! Why,
that's a prescription for electromocution!

the restaurant is open - our motto is
"you won't leave hungry"

I think a better motto would be "You don't ever leave"!


That is true Lex, Might blow the colour TV.

I get turn down service all the time.

And the elevator operates with a crank.

And I don't even get a mint on my pillow...

Dang then. Lex I am bring you with me if I ever have to stay in one of
these!

It's a good thing I've got my monkey.

This place will leave a monkey on your pillow, if you ask for one. But
he's never really very happy about it.
