Never Let the Facts Get In the Way of Making a Sale: First in a Series

I phoned up our cable company today, to schedule a repair guy to come out and replace the static we're currently getting with the sweet, soothing narcotic of TV.  The operator gladly took my information, told me that their van would be out Monday morning between eight and ten, and then tried to sell me HBO, "so you can watch the fight tonight."
