Well, that didn't take long. Last week, we passed along several hotel-related items from one of Craig Ferguson's stand-up routines. Craig, as his fans call him, had especially harsh words for the vibe at The Clift in San Francisco, including its purported "oranges in a birdcage," the existence of which we were unable to confirm. He also said he preferred places like the Ramana Inn.

Something told us he might be, um, joking--about staying in Ramadas, that is. And we were right. During last night's monologue, Craig said he'd stayed in a "great" hotel when he was Toronto for the Festival of Laughs over the weekend.
