A Room for the Night, Please

Outside the customs waiting area at Heathrow International Airport, a middle aged man in a smart suit stands next to an attractive 20something woman. Both sip coffee.

Woman: "Are you waiting for someone on the New York flight?"
Man: "Yep."

They chat some more about the fact that a taxicab trip from the airport into Central London can cost up to 100 pounds. They are both American.

Woman: "So what do you do?"
Man: "I am starting a business called 'The Chocolate Hotel.' It's exactly what it sounds like."
(woman nods)
Man: "How about you?"
Woman: "I work for Halliburton."
