narcimund 0 #1 August 29, 2003 Well, we're off to Eye Dee Ho. Just got reservations at the incomparable Shilo Inn which loves us: "Ok sir, that will be $108.95 plus tax per night for the king size bed." "Oh, that's quite a lot. But I forgot to mention that we're base jumpers." "I'm sorry, what did you say?" "B-A-S-E jumpers. It's a special for that Shilo Inn only. It has a discount for base jumpers." "Hold one second please while I check into that." ... 20 seconds pass ... "Thank you for holding. Yes sir, we do have a discount. I'm sorry I didn't know before. That will be $78.95 per night plus tax. Would you like your confirmation code?" "Thank you." Have fun. Be individuals. Don't screw it up.

Zennie 0 #2 August 29, 2003 Wow! ~25% off! Reminds me of when I was in the Holiday Inn at last year's Bridge Day. There was a sign that said "BASE Jumpers Welcome!" in the lobby. I turned to my friend and said "Boy, you don't see signs like *that* very often!" - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ManBird 0 #3 August 30, 2003 The Sizzler near Elsinore gives 10% off to skydivers. That's more of a punishment, though, I guess."¯"`-._.-¯) ManBird (¯-._.-´"¯" Click Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
