You mean all I have to do to win this Motel is write an essay? OK, how about this: "I like Oregon. It's a real groovy state. I also like Motels, especially if they're in Oregon. The end."

Also notice that these idiots want you to send them $10 JUST for the entry form!! What's this thing printed on, papyrus from ancient Egypt?!
