| Banta pulls into a hotel around midnight and asks the clerk for a single room. As the clerk fills out the paperwork, Banta looks around and sees a gorgeous blonde sitting in the lobby. He tells the clerk to wait while he disappears into the lobby. After a minute he comes back, with the girl on his arm. "Fancy meeting my wife here," Banta says to the clerk. "Guess I`ll need a double room for the night." Next morning, he comes to settle his bill, and finds the amount to be over $3000. "What`s the meaning of this?" he yells at the clerk. "I`ve only been here one night!" "Yes," says the clerk, "but your wife has been here for three weeks." |
