GPS is screwing with me

[Further]

Heading up to N.Y. I know I go to State College, and then I'll look at a map.

Half way to State College my wife checks the route on the phone GPS. It says to backtrack a bit and take a different route.

Wife wants to follow the GPS, so that's 2 against 1

Ninety miles of twisty, deer infested, game lands roads later we popped out on I 80. 

Probably saved 8 miles of distance, and lost 2 hours of time.

And then things got worse.

Finally arrive at the hotel in Corning N.Y.

Now karma is kicking in.

They can't find the reservation.

Desk clerk tells me I was there on the 8'th and didn't make another reservation. I tell him we made reservation on the 8'th for today.

He looks concerned, tells me no room at the inn, sorry.

We got a room at another hotel, close by but not handicap accessible 

It was a long day  

But we're still married, and nobody died, or even bled....much

Sounds like the settings on your GPS are for shortest distance, not fastest route.

Glad there was no blood shed !

I was taking my friend back to the Downtown City Center Marriott on Friday night..GPS said their was a big traffic delay, did we want an alternate route....I picked yes...and it sent us to the Marriott by the Mall of America

Hey, until you've driven into a lake, you have noting to complain about.

  I see "you have noting".  No contraction but a misspelling. Actually I meant to sound like Sylvester Stallone's Rocky.

Oops, earlier in the sentence.  Hey, either way is acceptable, but ";" is preferred.

I was referring to you using an apostrophe in the contraction , "you've", and not substituting a semicolon.
