By the time Bill arrived in a little town, every hotel room had been taken. "You’ve got to give me a room somewhere," he said to the manager at the hotel, "or just a bed ---

　　I don’t care where."  "Well, I do have a double room with one guest," admitted the manager, "and he might be glad to split the cost. But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in the next room have complained lately.

　　I’m not sure it’d be worth it to you." "No problem." Bill assured him, "I’ll take it."

　　The next morning Bill came down to breakfast bright-eyed. "How did you sleep?" asked the manager.

　　"Never better"  The manager was impressed. “No problem with the other guy snoring, then?”
　　"No, I shut him up in no time," said Bill.
　　"How did you manage that?" asked the manager.
　　"Did you give him some medicine to stop the snoring?"
　　"No, I didn’t. But here is what I did. He was already in bed when I went into the room," Bill explained. "I went over,gave him a kiss on the forehead, and said, ‘Goodnight,beautiful,’ and he sat up all night watching me."

　　“您得给我一个房间，什么地方都行。”他对宾馆经理说。
　　“或者只有一张床也行，我不在乎在哪儿。”
　　“好吧。我的确有一个双人间，里面只有一位客人。”

　　经理承认。“而且他可能很乐意和别人分摊费用。但是实话告诉你，他打呼噜太响最近连隔壁房间的人都抱怨。我不能确定这个你是否愿意去。”
　　“没问题。”比尔对他保证“我就要它了。”

　　第二天早晨，比尔下来吃早饭，眼睛亮晶晶的。“你睡得怎么样？”经理问。
　　“棒极了。”
　　经理来了兴趣：“那么，和那个打呼噜的家伙睡觉没问题？”
　　“没问题，我很快就让他不出声了。”比尔说。
　　“你是怎么解决的呢？”经理问：“你给他吃了什么不打呼噜的药了吗？”
　　“没有，我没给他吃药。我是这么做的：我进到房间时他已经上床了。”
　　比尔解释说：“我走到他跟前，给了他一个吻，然后说‘晚安，美人。’他就坐起来整个一晚上都在看着我。”
