One day I arrived in Bombay, India during the monsoon, and was shocked when Reception at the Taj Mahal Hotel gave me the key to room 666. On the top floor. I gulped hard, and looked at the "number of the beast" on the key as I trudged upstairs. Putting the key in the door, I heard a noise inside. Fully creeped out, I opened the door, and a torrent of water was gushing through a large hole in the ceiling. I quietly closed the door and headed back downstairs for a new room assignment. ::whew::

Safe Paths...
