Congratulations on working the dubya dubya

This morning, a man who was a sprightly 103 or so came in to the hotel lobby while I was working the front desk and asked about Priority points and free stays and stuff like that.


OLDIE: "Can you get it to where I get signed up for your club?"
ME: "Well, sir, if you're an existing member I can look you up etc but I can't register you from our system"
OLDIE: (Rattling Sigh) "Well..... I guess I'm going to have to get on that Dubya Dubya"

He just looked at me with his watery eyes and his tone was more like "Well... I guess I'm going to have to stab myself in the neck"

I think there should be a memo sent out in AARP and during the commercials on Wheel of Fortune/Fox News that tells these folks that "The Dubya Dubya is not going to come to life as an evil robot and do you any physical harm- Computers cannot destroy your house or eat your brain"

That would be the best Public Service Announcement ever. I would be happy to star.

Oh, and also there should be a little something at the end about "Be assured none of this will happen.... unless you drive more than 5 miles under the speed limit. This makes the Internet Robots very angry....

And then the little star goes across the screen "The more you Knooowwww"
