Route 66 motels an endangered species...
Not to mention US 60, 70, 80, 89, blah, blah, blah... (in AZ, anyway) With Phoenix no longer maintaining "one hour" permits for motels, our gems are under threat. Prostitution was keeping these joints alive. Huh! The 66 AP article: Route 66 motels an endangered species The Log Cabin...- VivianRegan

"Baby Snooks"... what gives?
Lizzie Maine, happyfilmluvguy, ANYONE: please explain to me the attraction of "Baby Snooks." Wasn't it a fairly popular show?
