Speaking of the bibles in hotel rooms. Do the Gideons show up from time
to
time to restock or is there a secret phone number you call to have them
delivered? And where do they meet. I've never run into a Gideon in person
and these questions nag at me.

Amazingly, yes, the Gideons simply show up from time to time.
Actually, they call ahead, and ask how many we need. They are very
nice folks.

Thus far, we have continued this age-old hotel tradition of stocking
Bibles in each suite, but I must confess to being uncomfortable about
it. We've been hit up by Mormons, too (we declined their offer of
stocking the "Book of Mormon") and I expect the Muslims to call on us
any day with Korans.

Where to draw the line?

OK that is funny. When I typed the previous message I ALMOST made a Mormon
joke because I had watched the new HBO show "Big Love" the night before.
