how did the hotel know we smoked in the room?

answermyqu

this may seem like a dumb questions, but I stayed in a hotel for 2 nights and both nights my boyfriend smoked in the room a few times, but he cracked the window and smoked by the window. to be honest, the room didn't smell like smoke whatsoever. I'm a non-smoker, so I would have been able to pick up on it. The thing is, we didn't set off the smoke alarm, and nobody like the maid or any workers came in our room. Then when I went to check out the lady at the desk said they were going to charge a 300 dollar fee for smoking in the room. how could they have known this? I mean he pretty much smoked the cigarette out the window and he put a towel under the bedroom door. (we had a bedroom and living room 2 room suite type thing.) so he wasn't even smoking in the room that had the door that was the entrance to the room.

They accused me of this before even checking the room, so how did they know?
the maid never came in our room.
and our room was on the side of the building, i doubt anyone saw it.

Answer
I recently made the same mistake, and was charged $500!! A manger entered our room as soon as we left, which we noticed as we were waiting for the elevator. We only smoked a little pot, which isn't as potent, but our guess is that a manger or customer walked by coincidentally at the same time. Even if you towel the door, smoke can get out. Also, smoke rises. The problem is that there is no good reason to argue an accusation like this, because all hotel "chains" have lawyers that would destroy the average person. So i guess, a hunch is all they need! needless to say, we were irate!!!

Should I get a ferret?

shelby

Okay, so I'm getting my own place in a couple of months. It will be mine, so I don't have to worry about landlords or anything. I intend on bringing my miniature doberman pinscher in with me, and she hasn't ever harmed any of my guinea pigs or hamsters or rabbits that I've had before. She actually stays pretty far away from them, lol. Anyways I've always wanted a ferret and recently took a pet quiz and it said a ferret would be best for me, but I'm still not sure. I know they can be pretty expensive; their cages, supplies, and the ferret itself can round out to hundreds of dollars, but I'm not spending my money on anything else currently, so I think I can handle it, but after the inital costs of setting them up, do they require expensive upkeep, or just food, treats, and occasional toys? Also, I will be attending college for a couple of hours a day (not every day) and working when I can, so I won't be home all the time. My house is a relatively small house with just a living room/kitchen, bedroom, and small bathroom. Also, how big of a mess do they make in their cage? Are we talking I'll have to hose it down every day? I've heard you can put lineoleum down in the bottom of their cage, but is that best? Or do they prefer some kind of bedding? Any tips and advice would be great, especially good places to get ferrets. I live in a small town so I doubt if my local shelter has ferrets, not to mention they don't answer their phones because they're so bogged down with dogs and cats they can't take anymore, so I think they're a pretty crappy shelter at best. There's a petco nearby, but their ferrets can be expensive. Thanks!

Answer
A ferret is a great pet getting all of my stuff for my ferret was between 300 to 400 to start up and that included the ferret. im going to list off the stuff you would only have to get
Ferret-100-150
Food-20
Cage- 90-200
Toys-20-40
Bowls-4
litter box- 5-10

I got my ferret at a pet store and he was 150. I would suggest even trying looking on craigslist. and if not then petco. I know sometimes they have sells on there ferrets for 100 Dollars.

the food is a high priority for any ferret. Good food leads to a healthy ferret. Do NOT use dog or cat food for a ferret!!!! The bets kind is raw food. But not everyone is cut out to do that and im one of those people. So I buy 8 in 1 ultimate ferret food. It has 45% more protein and is good for a ferret. When i bought my boy he was on marshals he stank really bad and his under coat was yellow i put him on the 8 in 1 and after a few months his under fur is white and his coat is better and he smells way better.

Depending on how long your going to have the ferret out depends on how bog of a cage you got, I got one of the cheapest cages, that was 90 dollars. My ferret actually gets a whole bed room to him self (Plus he shares it with the cats) So his cage door is open 24/7 so he can roam around the whole room. But if he is going to be in his cage alot then you should get a bigger cage.

Toys can be simple as a towel. I would suggest getting a long tubing thing for them to go threw, they have them at petsmart for about 20 dollars. I got one and mine loves it. Then there are like Sugar boxes that cats can go in that has three holes in it i put a pillow in it and my ferret takes naps and runs threw that and jumps on it. My ferret is def so he cant hear but most ferrets like balls with bells.

When you buy a cage it should come with a bowl and a water bottle, but i would not use the water bottle. I would get another bowl that hooks onto the cage and put the water in it. A ferret can get dehydrated from water bottles. its easier for them to drink and eat out of a bowl.

I would get a small cat box and cut the side out. The triangle ones are okay but ferrets back up to use the rest room so they will hit the outside of the triangle box and just go there out side of the box. I cut out side of one and mine uses it all the time in the box. i did not put ferret litter down beauce you dont need it. It just uses money. You can use newspaper or magazine paper. Which you can get free. And you just pick that up everyday and replace it with new paper.

As for ferret treats they are pretty much sugar and other bad things for ferrets and some dont like treats, Mine wont touch them and im glad also stay away form the ferret vite and there is another one that sounds like it, its just like sugar and they cna get sick from it in the long run.

As for bedding i just cut socks up and put them on his ramps and the plates he stands on and made sure they were secure there. At where you have bedding at they will not go to the bathroom.so leave a corner or a area for the litter box and put a blanket towel or something everywhere else.

You do need to clip there toe nails and i just use people clippers. So now with everything bough all i pay a month is 20 dollars and that just for a bag of ferret food. Umm i can't think of anything else, but if you have any questions at all feel free to e-mail me. My username is llhd1990@yahoo.

What do you think of my story so far?

LeeBee

This is a random selection. It's not the beginning or end or anything. I don't plan on publishing or anything, it's just something that I work on in my free time. Thanks!! Here goes...

I was all settled into my new place. It was a one bedroom, one bath house with no garage or laundry room, but I would make it work. I was renting it at a steady price of 300 dollars per month which was a âgreat dealâ according to my dad.
Sure, the roof had leaks, the walls were a bit stained, and the floorboards creaked, but it was good enough for now. I wasnât a very high maintenance girl and I wasnât expecting to be greeted with the finest luxuries of living during college. I was just lucky that I didnât have to live in one of those crammed dorms with someone I didnât even know. Now that would be real torture.
I had spent my whole day unpacking, moving furniture, and figuring out where everything was going to go. To my complete surprise, the house looked blank after I was done. It seemed that I didnât have enough stuff for even this small house. Pathetic!
Since I had only one box left to unpack and it was full of junk, I decided that I would put it somewhere out of the way. Even though I had been terrified of them since I was a child, I decided that I would put the box in the attic. Plus, I wanted to see if there was anything up there that might be useful to me. Like in all of those old movies where the new people move in and they find a bunch of the old ownerâs stuff in the attic.
I walked cautiously under the entry to the attic -which was a small door on the ceiling- with my stepstool in hand. I placed it under the door and stepped on. When I pushed on the door it only moved a slight bit. I guessed that I was going to have to put a little more effort into it.
I pushed a little bit harder this time and it slid open. I was just lucky that I wasnât one of those girls that weighed 110 pounds and had no muscle whatsoever. When I clasped my hands carefully on either side of the opening, I realized that this just wasnât going to happen. The boards in the ceiling were rotting completely underneath my fingertips, crumbling at the slight pressure I used just to set them there. I didnât even want to imagine what would happen if my 130 pound body depended on them in order to pull myself up. So, I pulled the door shut instead and stepped off the stool. Now my hands had a crummy, black, unidentified substance on them, disgusting!

Answer
Hey that's amazing!! You should put out the rest of your story!! I love the unidentified substance! lol. Its way better than mine on here, you should publish...and for suggestions keep up the good work. Theres a few little vocabulary things you could change, and wording things, but don't take offense, you don't have to change anything, it will still get published :D

Where can I get a 20 inch flat screen for under $30 ?

TheUnc0rru

I am thinking about getting a PS3 and i need a new tv for my bedroom.I would prefer a new one but used is fine.TV type doesn't matter just a flat screen.
Thanks,but how about at a pawn shop? and I'm not 18 or older so I can't use ebay.

Answer
Thirty dollars? I assume you mean 300 if you're talking about a new set. One highly rated option is the Sony Bravia KDL-22BX300, 22 inch, about $270.

If you're serious about 30 dollars, you won't find one unless it's used and broken. For that price you could go to Goodwill Industries or the Salvation Army and by a used analog set, but it won't be flatscreen.
