By the time John pulled into the little town, every hotel room was taken. "Youve got to have a room somewhere." he pleaded. "Or just a bed--I dont care where." "Well, I do have a double room with one occupant," admitted the manager," and he might be glad to split the cost. But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past. Im not sure itd be worth it to you."

  "No problem," the tired traveler assured him. "Ill take it."

  The next morning, John came down to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. When asked about how he slept, he replied, "Never better."

  The manager was impressed. "No problem with the other guy snoring, then?"

  "Nope. I shut him up in no time."

  "Howd you manage that?"

  "He was already in bed, snoring away, when I came in the room," John said. "I went over, gave him a kiss on the cheek, said, Goodnight, beautiful. With that he sat up all night watching me."
