I’m sitting here thinking of a MPSIMS thingie I can post.  
Because I am bored and dang if I can come up with anything worthy of this forum.

Here is what I got (Slight BECK reference there hehe)

- I have $1.20 cents return deposit on the six-pack of beer I drank. (Well, half of it).
- The freaking bed-side lights aren’t working in this motel room.
- Pizza Hut is going to want 20 bucks for the pizza I just ordered.
- I actually get to watch TV. but with 2,583 channels- I am like a deer in your headlights.
- I can’t see this keyboard in the dark
- Here’s to you! (Clinks glass) 😃 -

$1.20 deposit for a six-pack? It’s ten cents a bottle here in Michigan. What kind of beer?

Cheers!

Yeah, by the time you read the schedule on the TV, it is time to be asleep.

And every darn movie is at least 20 years old.

I would rather sleep in the car. ::: Grump ::::

In New York that six-pack would only get you 30 cents return deposit. Where is **Cabin\_Fever** , that he gets 20 cents a bottle?
