911 is to be called for everything. I you run out of toilet paper, you call 911. I thought everybody knew that by now.

If losing your cable right before Breaking Bad comes on isn't an emergency I don't know what is.

I heard on the radio about a woman who called 911 because her fast food burger didn't have what they claimed it would have. Didn't look like the picture I guess.

Years ago, I worked for a television station during the OJ Simpson trial. On local channels, the airing of the trial superseded regularly scheduled soap operas. This seemed to make people hopping mad; they melted down the switchboard calling the television station complaining about their soap operas not being aired. WHINERS WHINERS WHINERS

Some years ago, the neighbor's cable went out. For some reason, I was outside when it happened so I overheard her conversation with the cable company. She was standing on her porch with her cordless phone in hand YELLING at the top of her lungs telling the poor schmuck at the cable company to get his a** over to her house and FIX IT NOW!! I think if someone had just killed her husband she would have been calmer on the telephone. In some households, cable is more important than life itself.
Don't f*** with the cable!!!

Not to long ago we had a customer lose her **** when she was informed that she would have to pay for a diagnosis. We hadnt done the diagnosis or charged her for it yet. Her tirade led to her calling 911 from the waiting room. Needless to say she was informed that misuse of the 911 system would lead to an arrest. Funny thing was she was on speakerphone at the time.

I wonder if Breaking Bad is as popular among LEOs as it is the general population?
In Breaking Bad, they typically portray LEO’s as dolts. As an aside, the most recent episode was very good. The wheels are coming off the wagon, so to speak.

^While I wouldn’t encourage anyone to spend more time in front of a TV, if you like good writing and dramatic story telling, and have access to Netflix, I strongly recommend it. I write this not as a TV junkie, but as someone who loves good writing. Breaking Bad is probably one of the better stories, and absolutely one of the most compelling dramas in recent memory.
