We were very disappointed when our Airbnb rental turned out to be just the space underneath a table at a Red Lobster restaurant. We’d been led to believe that our rental would be a stand-alone room, including a bed, walls, and a door. By the time we realized the true state of our accommodations, there were no remaining hotel vacancies in the area and we were stuck under the table for the duration of our five-day vacation.
Our stay was unsatisfying for numerous reasons, the lack of privacy being chief among them. Since it was our honeymoon, my wife and I looked forward to being intimate without an audience of strangers, but that proved impossible under the Red Lobster table. Most diners who noticed us seemed alarmed and not always receptive to sharing the space.
At one point, I was repeatedly kicked in the neck by a restless toddler. Another time, a diner spilled coleslaw in my wife’s hair and she had to rinse off with half-drunk water glasses from the table. Though it was never explicitly stated, we’d been under the impression that bathrooms with showers would be included in the rental.

It’s Wednesday, and we have a few observations on recent events including a music feature. But the main issue in the last 24 hours is the decision by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) to add an 11th interest rate increase at a time when inflation is falling significantly. As I noted last week, the…

While he’s running for president It appears that they also tried to recreate the fiction that Scotland is thrilled to have Trump visiting. He said “It’s good to be home” when he arrived which is a very weird thing to say when you’re running for president of the United States. But whatever. The fact that he’s still doing business abroad and has no plans to divest if he were to win another term gets no coverage in the media. It’s just a given that he’ll run his business from the White House as he did before. This is just sad: He’s going to Ireland next. I think he’s expecting a big welcome like Biden received when he was there a couple of weeks ago. Not gonna happen. This pathetic little display is about the best he can hope for.
