[Leica] Aaron's PAW 17: Visiting my brother at college

[aaron.sandler at duke.edu (Aaron Sandler)]

A good technique, but the bedroom doors have no locks...only the main door 
has 
a lock, leading to a living room shared by two bedrooms...For freshmen there 
are two people per bedroom...the hanger goes on the bedroom door.

Now if you ever find yourself there, you will know what to do!

> We just locked the door and left the key on it.
> As if we needed it, since there is no roommate tradition over here.
