Oh, and TKG, you'll like this one ...
My last husband was an over the road truck driver. I was riding with him and we decided to stop around St Louis for the night. We were bopping along and saw that one of the drivers from the same company was staying at this place - he was a nice, family guy. His wife was with him - they were quite a bit older than us. Anyway, I just didn't catch a clue when the guy at the front desk asked us if we wanted the room by the night or by the hour
There was NO phone in the room (in the days before cell phones), the shower was a metal shower stall and there were (gulp) mirrors on the ceiling and behind the bed Oh, and I'm way too polite to talk about what was available on tv. Let's just say there was no news and no Miami Vice.
The next morning we stepped out of the room the same time this other guy and his wife did. We told them the only reason we checked in was we thought it had to be a decent place if THEY were staying there ...
