Q:   But what if I want to telephone?
A:   Send an e-mail.

I don't do business over the phone.  Why?  Well, we've all heard of those people who can't walk and chew gum at the same time, . . . I can't work and talk on the phone at the same time, because when I'm working I am giving my work my full attention. 

That, and the fact that the last time I gave my phone number to someone who just had to speak with the mask maker before he'd place his order, not only did he not place any order at all, but he shafted me with a killer phone bill -- the slimy little weasel had charged his '900 number' calls to my number.  May he roast, and without the benefit of basting.

I am willing to schedule calls, but only for the rare or extraordinary circumstances.  Have your referral handy, because I will ask for - and verify - it.  You could try telepathy, but I work to music, so I might not hear you -- unless you shout really loudly.

Some may ask "Why haven't you answered my e-mail?"
Could be any of a number of reasons -- 

(1) Your server may have automagically dumped my response -- those evil, rotten, nasty spammers have highjacked my e-mail addy, causing it to be socially infected with e-mail cooties, until said servers perform a 'cleansing' of some sort. (grrrrr)
(please try again)

(2)  The return e-mail address you provided was invalid, so my response bounced because of 'fatal errors'. 
(please try again)

(3)  The address you initially e-mailed to was incorrect -- in other words, your e-mail never reached me. 
(please try again)

(4)  My system might have crashed (again), sending all messages into oblivion. 
(please try again)

(5)  I might be under a very heavy work load and haven't had the chance, or I could be rebuilding after a tornado (this is for real -- we were hit by a tornado in April of 1998 -- egadz). 
(patience, please)

(6)  I might be taking a much needed vacation/holiday. 
(patience, please)

(7) Your communique was impertinent and/or rude. 
(harumph)

(8)Because this bears repeating:  Your server may have automagically dumped my response -- those evil, rotten, nasty spammers have highjacked my e-mail addy, causing it to be socially infected with e-mail cooties, until said servers perform a 'cleansing' of some sort. (grrrrr)
