On Saturday nights, I watch the MSNBC program "Lockup" It's a real life documentary about life in the nations prisons. Last night, they were showing the inside of the "execution chamber." There was a bank of phones on the wall.
It caused me to wonder if they have one of those automatic answering systems.
"Hello, you've reached the execution chamber. Your call is very important. Please listen carefully as our options have changed. If this is the governor with a pardon, press 1. If this is just a stay of execution, press 2. If you are a family member, press 3. If you would like to speak directly to the executioner press 4. Remember for faster service you can visit our web site at www.endofline.com. For all other calls, please stay on the line and your call will be answered in the order in which it was received. Approximate wait time....eternity.
