    During high school I went on a field trip with this autistic guy (more of a friend because I knew him for around 10 years and we go to a lot of trips together) we stopped at a motel in the middle of motel in a pretty deserted area. This was a club field trip btw. I anyways we went to a motel to sleep for the night and we were looking for our rooms. Well the teacher room was on the top floor while the girls and my room was on the basement floor. Well we were (the boys) were told to escort the girls down to their room. Which the basement was a dump. Anyways when we did that and we got to our rooms which were next to the girls…. The anet called me and told me that some guy in rags were following them. Which when they told me that they were going to our room. They said someone was behind them. Though there was nobody. Which freaked me out. I anyways latter on that night I told Daniel to send the girls back to their room he said that he saw some guy carrying. A assault rifle was walking around. Well I didn’t believe him because he was special. I anyways latter that he couldn’t sleep and kept turning on the lights because he was playing some sort of game with me . Where I tell him to turn off the lights then he says ok then turns them back on.. I he saw some guy through the window and woke me up. I saw that guy. And that guy looked like a GI Joe…. Which freaked the heck out of me.

    Looks like a ‘smart’ phone is an oxymoron……..

    Judging from Mom’s expression, ‘plastic-headed’ applies to somebody in the room as well.

    phones, grids, cars, presidents… if it’s marketed as “smart”, it’s useless.

    If they phone was smart enough it would be writing down what you say. Fascinating story. Reminds me of “Small Soldiers” or a weird night at the Outer Limits of the Twilight Zone.


    Su’s are dangerous mythological animals in South America. Resembles a giant cat with a bushy squirrel-like tail.

    Wow SU: maybe you should write in word first, then edit, then post. Your smart phone isn’t cut out for this work … It was difficult for me to understand your story. You (or your smart phone) mixed up three different thoughts…

    A SMART president is “useless”? Then you must have been delighted with the dimbulb in the White House before 2009!

    Actually, the SU designation in Russian (ex-Soviet Union) planes, such as the SU-47 Berkut fighter, stands for the Sukhoi Design Bureau, not the Soviet Union. Wikipedia article on the Sukhoi Design Bureau.
