When I saw the billboard announcing that Panera Bread had added breakfast sandwiches to the menu, I knew that I had to check them out.

The title is something of a play on words, depicting both the name of the motel and the general state of affairs for the unfortunate soul who wanders anywhere near the motel and its proprietors.

If you have ever listened to the radio, you're probably already familiar with several tracks from The Joshua Tree, U2's Grammy-winning album from 1987.
