By the time a Marine pulled into a little town, every
hotel room was taken. "You've got to have a room
somewhere," he pleaded. "Or just a bed, I don't care
where."
"Well, I do have a double room with one occupant - an Air
Force guy," 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. I'm
not sure it'd be worth it to you."
"No problem," the tired Marine assured him. "I'll take
it."
The next morning the Marine came down to breakfast
bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. "How'd you sleep?" asked the
manager.
"Never better." The manager was impressed. "No problem
with the other guy snoring, then?" "Nope, I shut him up in
no time," said the Marine.
"How'd you manage that?" asked the manager.
"He was already in bed, snoring away, when I came in the
room," the Marine explained. "I went over, gave him a kiss
on the cheek, said, 'Goodnight, beautiful,' and he sat up
all night watching me."
