TEEVEE

I got a sales call from TimeWarner last night.

It is OK. They are my vendor for on-line access. So they get to call me.

They had a two hundred television channel deal for me.

I told the guy that we only had the internet service. No teevee.

There was a moment of silence.

"You don't have television"? he asked.

"No", I said.

He laughed. One to tell his co-workers I guess. I laughed. We both found it quite amusing.

Then we signed off with a happy goodnight.

He got to check off my name without having to work for anything and I didn't have to listen to a mind numbing sales pitch.

A deal.
