Jim,

I am very sorry about missing your call. The telecom guy replaced my phone this morning, bad timing, and the friggin' dingbat had the ringer turned off. I was waiting all morning for your call, or so I thought. I figured you got delayed in all that bad weather that went through here over night. I was really looking forward to meeting you and having that BBQ.

I just called your cell and it wouldn't put me through for some reason. Not a good day for phones apparently...

Sorry guy. Hope you didn't have to settle for Taco Bell

Mark
