And I hear it has all of the latest luxuries. Each room has a wireless laptop, a 6.1 surround sound, wide-screen high-definition TV, auto-flush toilets, lights that automatically switch off if nothing triggers a motion sensor in the room for a certain amount of time, et al. It’s really on the foreskin of technology.

I was hoping to remain above all the genitalia jokes, but apparently I am a weak, weak man.

And it's a high-rise too.

Yes, and every New Year's Little Dick's has a very popular New Year's Eve dance and a "hangover dance" on New Year's Night, not nearly so well attended. The ballroom is called the "Devizes" room because the balls are of different sizes....

No. On the rocks. Masochists might like a little twist.

I thought it would be proper to send the management a digest all the commentary. But I googled it, and, apparently, the hotel has gone the way of Texas Chili, another celebrated Port Chester establishment. It sold chili and green and red 'juice' (that's two kinds, not stripes), and was next to the firehouse. Or should have been: the chili itself was banned under the Geneva Conventions.

Meanwhile, keeping our finger on the pulse of the Wendy house story...

Wendy's has offered a $100,000 reward and has a team of private investigators running a tip line 10 hours a day.

But they’re not just leaving their fate in others’ hands…

Next month, Wendy's will introduce a new premium deli sandwich, also in the Bay Area.

Presumably advertised as their new range of finger-food.

The caption in the NY Times article (Mav's post) does not say that the other part of the woman's finger wasn't connected to her hand.

I saw on CNN a couple of minutes ago that police in Las Vegas have arrested the woman who fingered Wendy's, or whom Wendy's fingered, depending on your point of view.

No reason for arrest, but the police will hold a news conference in a bit.
