Verrrryy interesting!

So I mailed my business card to Redbird Fan, not knowing if he'd even get it before the tradeshow here in Chicago (which starts today, by the way). He travels quite a bit, I think.

At 4:57 pm, my cell phone rings and I check the display: a 314 area code.

St. Louis!

'Hello?' I tried to sound friendly but not overly so.

A man's voice replies, "Oh, sorry, I must have the wrong number."

And hangs up!

So who's the bigger chickenshit, me or him? I hung up when his receptionist tried to put my call through and he (or his friend/coworker) hung up when I answered.

There is NO WAY IN HELL that the call wasn't from him.

The tradeshow ends on Thursday. We'll see...
