Interesting Tele-marking call from the Blade

I just received a tele-marketing call from Lawrence, who wanted to offer me a great deal on a subscription to the Blade. I told him no thank you, that I wasn't interested, he tried a bit harder and I told him even if I was interested I would not consider a subscription while the lockout was going on. Lawrence then asked me something interesting, he asked me if I had stopped my cable tv as well.

Unfortunately for Lawrence that wasn't a good counter point, since I don't have cable tv.

zing! I don't know too much about the Blade trying to break up their unions. It just seems weird with all the advertisements that they have been doing with reinvesting in Toledo then they go and create all this controversy with their unions. And expect a town that many people are part of unions to invest with them.

Haha he was trying to be clever and failed. I like it!

Wait... there are people in Toledo that... don't... watch cable television? Weird.

I don't even need mine.. except for the internet connection, but it's not like I really need faster than DSL since I don't really upload or download anything other than PDF and word docs.

If you think about it for a minute, this is what it must have been like watchng those other dinosaurs dying off, after the meteor hit.

They're dying,
They know they're dying,
They just can't figure out why they're dying...
