I stole a laundry bag from the Alvear Palace Hotel in Buenos Aires. It was made of thick ivory linen, embroidered with the words "dry cleaning" in cerulean blue, and looked like something that I could have found at an antique textiles show. But that wasn't the case. I'm usually pretty scrupulous about purloined souvenirs. Of course, I help myself to soap and shampoo, sewing kits, even those black sponges meant to spruce up your shoes -- oh, and ballpoint pens and darling little notepads. But the laundry bag was my first sojourn into the land of, what shall we call it ... outright theft?

Take the mattress too....dare you....
Is it OK to steal?
It is theft, yes. Even though they probably expect you to take it. If it’s not yours and its not shampoo or soap, it’s stealing.
No problem at all, mind if I spend the night at your place?
I visited Hiroshima in last year of high school. You couldn’t fine a t-shirt in any store there about Hiroshima. The hotel I stayed at had three-quarter sized comfort robes with the hotel name and “Hiroshima” printed on it. I went to the reception desk and asked to buy it. They didn’t know what to do. Finally they checked on what they paid for it and charged me that. Are we talking about that sort of thing or the shampoo/conditioner/lotion stuff they lay out?

What was your question?
Did you ever see that piece on Dateline where they went into the hotels/motels and sprayed the Luminol (which detects blood splatter)on the mattresses and comforters. So gross. You don’t want to know.
One of the attorneys I worked with in Denver stole a wine glass from every elegant restaurant at which he dined. He bragged about it and I (and my co-workers) always thought of him as a thief thereafter. You really knew the answer to this one before you asked the question.
Oh ... good ... grief. I always knew CNN were a bunch of liars. Now I see they’re a bunch of thieves, too.
He wants society...or as many of the people in society as he can...to rationalize it for him by saying it is ok. Well, it is not ok and the guy is nothing more than a petty criminal.
That’s good.
Only if you are the govt.
GUILTY.

Only CNN would dare to suggest that stealing from a Hotel is OK.
It is a dirty Capitalist business for profit, right? Return the “spoils to their rightful ownder.
Many clients staying a deluxe hotels have been shocked and embarassed to find the cost of stolen bathrobes, towels, bathmats, etc, added to their final bill before checkout.
They may do it at will...but it is not ok, and one day, there will be a reckoning and an accounting, either on this earth or before a heavenly tribunal.

CNN is getting lamer.
