I have this friend who keeps threatening promising to visit, but I can't get him to stay at the Howard Johnson's Express, which is conveniently located only a few blocks from where I live. Off the top of my head, I can only think of one good reason, Debbie Harry's Backfired, which has the line "But we wound up at HoJo's for hamburgers to go!", other than location, for him to stay there - can anyone help me with more, preferably better, reasons???
