Travel Tip

"Travel Tip"*

*Here's a little tip from me to you as an experienced traveler.

Wake-up calls: worst way to wake up. The phone
rings; it's loud; you can't turn it down, you can't 'snooze' it.

I leave the number of the room next to me, and then
it rings kind of quiet, and you hear a guy yell, "What
are you calling me for?"

Then you get up and take a shower. It's great.

"Sea Sickness"*

*It was a rough ocean crossing and Mr. Jones was
suffering the tortures of the damned. During one
of the more unsettled periods, he was leaning
over the rail, retching miserably, when a kindly
steward patted him on the shoulder.

"I know sir," said the steward, "that it seems awful.
But remember, no man ever died of seasickness."

Mr. Jones lifted his green countenance to the
steward's concerned face and said, "For heaven's
sake, man, don't say that. It's only the wonderful
hope of dying that's keeping me alive."
