    Mike: “So who made Mobil’s 5-star hotel list?”

    Anne: “Well, anything with ‘Ritz’ or ‘Seasons’ in its name. Nothing with ‘Motel’ or ‘6′ made it.”

    Mike: “Restaurants? Names?”

    Anne: “Very exciting names: ‘The Dining Room’. ‘The French Laundry’.”

    Mike: “Ah. Would you like the bearnaise with that, or the starch?”

    Anne: “And don’t get me started on ‘per se’. I had enough of e.e. cummings in junior high.”

    Mike: “We’re starting to sound like total rubes.”

    Anne: “Whatever happened to places with names like ‘Killer Shrimp’ or ‘Aunt Kizzy’s Back Porch’?”

    Mike: “Nothing. Still there. “

    Anne: “Why ‘Roscoe’s House of Chicken ‘n Waffles’ didn’t make the list, I’ll never understand.”
