Good idea, 'til you found out how much it hurt, right?

My childhood horror story:  In 1966, right about the time the SCA was being
invented,  my father was transferred by his company [CBS] to Los Angeles from
New York, and our family was housed in a nice hotel [The Beverly Hilton] for a
few weeks.  Well.  Little 6-year-old Susie and her littler brother were hungry
and the parents were still asleep, when Susie found the room service menu.
What a wonderful service!  So I called downstairs and placed our order.  Mommy
and Daddy woke up about an hour later, finding the kids munching on their
nine-dollar Rice Crispies...  He submitted it on the expense account, which
was paid with a laugh and a dire warning to the children NOT to try that
again!

This rather set my style for life I'm afraid.
