That said, I'm still pissed not to have found a spread of donuts waiting for me after finishing the "Dunkin Donuts Cape Cod Marathon."

Yeah. I was mighty pissed. Especially since (1) donuts were everywhere *before* the race, when I didn't want any, and (2) they were also everywhere *after* the race... but only for the volunteers. I wanted to strangle a volunteer. I *really* wanted a damn donut.

I'd be more worried they'd be partially digested and everywhere, after the race.

I promise to live up to the hopes and dreams represented by my 10,813th place in line.

(I realize that it was alphabetical and my joke doesn't really work. But still, the sea of humanity awaits.)

You move up more than 1600 places when it's in anti-alphabetical order.

back to the topic at hand. My son said his room meets none of your criteria, but for a little extra cash, you can have the top bunk.
