I love these, the art's great, the story and just acknowledging the assumption that we all know motel art sux.

Actually all motel art doesn't suck. We have an art event EVERY YEAR in June in Reno. It's doubled each year and this year artists filled 40 rooms in one classic hotel and a sixty motel next door... http://www.NadaDadaDingDong.com
Dada Motel in '07, Nada Motel in '08 and the public hasn't voted on next year's name yet.
