Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Night at the Hampton

.
After traveling most of the day, it was wonderful to get to our hotel rooms.

Little Miss Piper, quite grown up propped on bed pillows.

I want some jammies like that.

Mackinley was fascinated with the adjoining rooms, and the puffy beds, and the doors, and well - - - just about everything.

He's just so adorable, Sister Pam HAD to give him a big squeeze.

Kickin' back, enjoying the moment.

Pretty fancy digs!!!

Oh my, just look - - -

This nice hotel has the TP hanging BACKWARDS!!!!
(Fancy point and all)

Bye for now - - -

B) That toilet paper is totally going the RIGHT way! :-); October 21, 2008 at 9:49 AM
Anonymous said...: I guess you have to pay more for a hotel room in order to have your toilet paper hung the *right* way!; October 21, 2008 at 11:47 AM
Keetha Broyles said...: I did not KNOW that Plastic - - - I'll have to REQUEST it next time.

Making my reservations: "I'd like to reserve a nonsmoking hotel room with a view AND the toilet paper hung THE RIGHT WAY, please."; October 21, 2008 at 5:03 PM
Anonymous said...: For the life of me I can't figure out why anyone likes the toilet paper hung on the side of the roll that you can't see! What is wrong with you people! No wonder I like the Hampton so much! I won't stay anywhere else on a business trip!; October 22, 2008 at 9:28 PM
Keetha Broyles said...: Hehehehehehehe - - - and I don't see why anyone wants the paper coming over the top - - - - it just feels backwards to me.

Aren't we glad we aren't all clones of each other?!?; October 23, 2008 at 3:28 AM
Anonymous said...: I don't know. I think I'd get along with me pretty well! :-); October 23, 2008 at 6:45 PM

Nancy said...: Concerning the toilet paper dilema ...

The justification for the paper coming off the top: Remember when TP had decorative prints? The pattern showed correctly when the roll was hung raw edge out.

If you want to vote on the proper way to hang TP, check out this site: http://www.probabilityof.com/toilet.shtml

You will find you are not alone.

When checking out of the hotels, and the desk clerk asks you if everything was to your satisfaction, you need to tell them the problem with the TP. You may get a discount. =); October 24, 2008 at 11:07 PM
Keetha Broyles said...: LOL Nancy - - -

I've already been to that site and others like it and have, of course, voted. Yep - - - I found out I'm in the vast minority - - - I think about 27% are with me.

My, such an IMPORTANT issue!!! :-); October 25, 2008 at 7:41 AM
