Late one evening a Marine pulled into a little town, only to find that every hotel room was taken.<\/p>\n
When he finally got to the last hotel, he pleaded to the manager, \u201cYou\u2019ve got to have a room somewhere, or just a bed, I don\u2019t care where.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, I do have a double room with one occupant, a Navy guy,\u201d admitted the manager, \u201cand he might be glad to split the cost.<\/p>\n
But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past. I\u2019m not sure it\u2019d be worth it to you.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNo problem,\u201d the tired Marine assured him, \u201cI\u2019ll take it.\u201d<\/p>\n
The next morning the Marine came down to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow did you sleep?\u201d asked the manager.<\/p>\n
\u201cNever better.\u201d The manager was impressed.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo problem with the other guy snoring, then?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNope, I shut him up in no time,\u201d said the Marine.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow\u2019d you manage that?\u201d asked the manager.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was already in bed, snoring away, when I came in the room,\u201d the Marine explained. \u201cI went over, gave him a kiss on the cheek, said, \u2018Goodnight, beautiful,\u2019 and after that he sat up all night watching me\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
