Welcome to Master's Inn....

...The Masters of Value

Value is a funny thing. Maybe this cock roach feels valuable. Maybe he grew up here. Maybe he comes from a long line of Master's Inn roaches. He's probably a proud roach roaming the walls of the 2nd floor rooms here at the MI.....that's probably where he tells his friends he lives. "He Paul," they say, "Where you stay at bro?" "The MI," Paul replies. "That's what's up man."

So here he is patrolling his property making sure I stay in my corner. "Keep your orange shirt wearing, deep voice talking, cock roach hating tail right there, dude," he thinks.

Paul, no problem man. I have nothing against you as long as you don't crawl in my mouth while I'm sleeping. And I doubt you'll do that because you know what? You seem like one cool roach man. Really. I'm not just saying that.
