While attending a conference, I returned to my hotel room late one rainy evening. The overhead light outside my door was   36   and I had difficulty finding the keyhole. When I finally   37   to open the door, I   38   around the wall for a light switch. I found a   39   where a switch was once installed... but no switch.
No discouraged easily, I remembered seeing a   40   by the bed when I put away my luggage   41   in the day. I found the bed in the dark and felt around until I found the lamp, but when I switched it on,  42   happened! Now what?
