And the winner is...

We have a winner in the name-the-newsletter contest. The winning entry, provided by one of our employees at our Mt. Hood property, is "Inn Bin."

However, some of you came pretty darn close - other favorites were The Folio, Wake Up Call, Pillow Talk (or variants thereof).

The winner is getting $100 bucks.

Thanks to all of you for your feedback and help on this. You'll get a break from me for the next few days while I head north to do some management training in Kent and Auburn. Be good and don't let Ray or Don do anything stupid. x;-)

Beagle???? Me, stupid???? I think I'm offended. I'll let you know when I decide for sure.

I didn't say you were stupid, Ray. Now go play your trombone.

Cute name, I like it. 100 dollars, huh? Not a bad deal. I know I could use an extra hundred right about now.

Beag,

Hmmm, Pillow Talk? I think HBO aired a late night series by the same title. It featured, amongst other things, playmates (the Hugh Heffner variety).

I know, I didn't get it. Four separate entries from different properties (and someone on the Forum) suggested Pillow Talk or Pillow Talk Gazette or something like that. I don't understand how so many different people could come up with the same name.

Inn Bin? I don't get it. What's up with that? I thought you were trying to come up with something catchy that would relate to the industry. Oh, I get it; Bin Laden, right?

No Don, think Trash Bin... as in people won't bother to read it, just throw it in the bin.

Or, I know, one of those vertical, descending laundry chutes in hotels that the towels and stuff are thrown into....I think they call them Inn Bins. Clever, Beagle!

Yeah, that's it. Don, do these posts qualify as doing something stupid?
