Now, if my memory serves me correctly, I don't think motels came about until after the automobile was invented. So maybe a little research should have been done, and where was the editor, I asked?

If the author misuses it, I put the book down. You'd think they would know these things, or at least have the humility to pick up a dictionary.<br /><br />http://carabosseslibrary.blogspot.com/2012/04/booking-through-thursday_19.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588652984787423824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20402592.post-73235016202099579142012-04-19T10:55:06.214-05:002012-04-19T10:55:06.214-05:00It looks like you've thought about this a lot....It looks like you've thought about this a lot.

The myriad reasons you've listed make sense to me (hope I used that correctly). It especially pisses me off about the pets.
