Immutable Law of the Universe Discovered!

April 19th, 2008 |

Recently I’ve discovered an immutable law of nature.

Hanger’s Law:
Regardless of how many purchased, the number of available hangers in your closet will converge to 1.

Or, put another way:

There are never enough hangers in your closet.

Why this happens? I don’t know. Where the hangers go? I have no idea, but I imagine they go “hang out” with the disappearing socks from the laundry (sorry about the pun).

What does that paragraph mean?

About two months ago my cable provider (rhymes with Bombast) sent me their “Cable Television Subscriber Privacy Notice”. Normally I just briefly scan it before filing (throwing) it away, but there was a paragraph, titled “Where and when can I see my personally identifiable information?”, which caught my attention. In short, I can make an appointment with my local office to see the personally identifiable information they have on me. I’ve been calling for over a month to make that appointment, and finally got a hold of the right person. She told me that I was the first person to ask about this.

As of right now, she still can’t find the pamphlet they sent out, but I gave her the document name and number. So now I am just expecting a call to set up the appointment. I’ll keep you posted.
