hotel bill

-----------------------------------

>Next time you think your hotel bill is too high you might want to 
>consider this... 
> 
>A husband and wife are traveling by car from Key West to Boston. 
> 
>After almost twenty-four hours on the road, they're too tired to 
>continue, and they decide to stop for a rest. 
> 
>They stop at a nice hotel and take a room, but they only plan to sleep 
>for four hours and then get back on the road. 
> 
>When they check out four hours later, the desk clerk hands them a bill 
>for $350. The man explodes and demands to know why the charge is so 
>high. He tells the clerk although it's a nice hotel, the rooms 
>certainly aren't 
worth 
>$350. 
> 
>When the clerk tells him $350 is the standard rate, the man insi sts on 
>speaking to the Manager. 
> 
>The Manager appears, listens to the man, and then explains that the 
>hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference center that were 
>available for the husband and wife to use. 
> 
>"But we didn't use them," the man complains. 
> 
>"Well, they are here, and you could have," explains the Manager. 
> 
>He goes on to explain they could have taken in one of the shows for 
>which the hotel is famous. "The best entertainers from New York, 
>Hollywood and 
Las 
>Vegas perform here," the Manager says. 
> 
>"But we didn't go to any of those shows," complains the man again. 
> 
>"Well, we have them, and you could have," the Manager replies. 
> 
>No matter what facility the Manager mentions, the man replies, "But we 
>didn't t use it!" 
> 
>The Manager is unmoved, and eventually the man gives up and agrees to 
>pay. 
> 
>He writes a check and gives it to the Manager. 
> 
>The Manager is surprised when he looks at the check. 
> 
>"But sir," he says, this check is only made out for $50." 
> 
>"That's correct," says the man. "I charged you $300 for sleeping with 
>my wife." 
> 
>"But I didn't!" exclaims the Manager.
