A Cable Fan

     I just had a weird thought, in a rambling kind of way.  I was thinking about how one goes about telling a sattelite/cable provider of the death of a subscriber.  For any Comcast subscriber, you know there's a phone tree, but I don't think it has a "To report the death of a subscriber" button, so you have to actually talk to an operator who can't pronounce "Vacaville," and doesn't realize it's a small city.  You get "Vay-ka-vile" a lot, and it stops being amusing after the fourth time you've called with a problem or question.
     "So who do we send the final billing, Mr. Martin?"
     "Umm, I don't know... Can you be billed in the hereafter, or can you continue service.  Come to think of it, I don't know if I'd want to be in Heaven if it didn't have cable...

OK, maybe it was funnier in my head.
