So, with the tough economy, I just book at simple hotels (I am a Choice Club member)... so I try to save money...$100 a night is very reasonable for the DC/Baltimore corridor, so I stayed in Columbia, MD last night at a Comfort Suites. For me, all I need it a place that has free Wi-Fi and a bed... anything else is a bonus. So imagine my surprise when I got to my room ... tag:ramblingalong.com,2010-07-25:c555c50f-1b7f-46a4-8c15-eb6da8bc6d29 Kelly 2010-07-25T18:46:00Z 2010-07-25T18:46:00Z I know...

Jeff has never really played a round of golf.

I now have to go through my profiles on Adam4Adam, Manhunt, Bear411, Dudesnude, and Gay.com and change my age to 40 (oh and Daddyhunt)....
