The Lift
-------------------------
As a concierge at a posh resort, I was often asked about the ski
facilities. One day a couple who had just checked in after a long
flight came by and asked me where the lift was.
"Go down the hill," I told them, "out the door, past the pool,
200 yards down the block, and you'll see it on your right."
Their tired faces suddenly looked even more exhausted, until the man
behind them spoke up.
"They're from England," he said. "I think they're looking for the
elevator."
