Fresh off the boat ...
By the time the sailor 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 in the
past. I'm not sure it'd be worth it to you."
"No problem," the tired Navy man assured him. "I'll take it."
The next morning, the sailor 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?"
"Nope. I shut him up in no time," said the Navy guy.
How'd you manage that?" asked the manager.
"He was already in bed, snoring away, when I came in the
room, "the sailor explained. "I went over, gave him a kiss on
the cheek, and said, "Good night beautiful, and he sat up all
night watching me."
