this was probably comcast's way of making themselves look better after the superbowl penis blunder.

the old woman is also employed by comcast, and the whole thing was a publicity stunt.

brilliant, comcast. brilliant.

And in a bold PR move, Comcast has begun setting people's houses on fire, and having their personnel rescue them afterwards.

Good for them, I'd like to think that I'd make the same decision when faced with it point blank. A beautiful case of humans treating eachother as humans.

Hopefully they'll be getting raises or bonuses for the good PR they've given the company.

@myotheralt: That was my first thought. Comcast will probably fire him for putting "the company" at risk or something.

@Kekaha: Most "heroes" never make it to the news, and the majority of people will help when they can. To all the every day heroes who dont make the news, but make someones day, every single day, here is a big and untelevised Thank You.
