Uh, I have a MySpace blog- if I do this here I feel accountable to the people who are watching and waiting for their shields.

Yeah

Some dude called my house tonight at 9pm.

He said "Is this the shieldworks?"

I thought he said "Is this the Sheldons?" or some other name, so I said "no" and hung up...I thought he was a telemarketer.

Then he called again, but didn't leave a msg, so I called his number.

He didn't even tell me what he wanted! It was too late..we were yelling at each other. We ended up telling each other off and hanging up. Anybody know who this guy was?

It's not coming up in the directory
It's likely a cell.

Reason: No listings were found.

*

We searched on 7477760 in 408 however; we could not find any listings to display.

Possible solution: Please check your search information.

1.

Check to see if your information was entered correctly. Make sure the Area Code is 3 digits and the Telephone Number is 7 digits.
2.

Or, the listing you're looking for is a non-published listing. Non-published listings are not contained within the database.

Man, I feel terrible about this. He called at 9PM and I never have had a shield-related call past 5. I thought he was a telemarketer!! I called him back (I do this to telemarketers so I can yell at them) and he never told me who he was or what he wanted until I was so mad I could have popped an eyeball.
I feel like shit about this but I just don't have the heart to call him again.

Perhaps calling him back would be the best choice though Sir Vitus? Call him up in a fiendly manner and apologize for the other night?

Covered an oval blank I had laying about.
More work on John Steinke's heater
More hardener on the jouster-testers

Vitus, I got the shields today, safe and sound. They look fantastic and will be easy to carry around. Your job on the heraldry was excellent. I love the way the crosses look.

Thank you very, very much.

They ain't perfect, but it was a rush-job.
Glad you like them.

Strangely, just looking at another thread I noticed that Klaus the Red here on the archive is from Sunnyvale.

Maybe him, or maybe he knows the number?

Just a side note . . . I hope you figure this situation out, but I want to observe . . .

It's very much to your credit, Sir Vitus, that you're trying to rectify and make amends. More than a few merchants would write off something like that and not lose any sleep over it.

A goodly number of fighters came out to BSR. I think it was a total near 150. From my vantage, the fighting was excellent.

Yep- been out here since September 06. And no, I was not the mystery caller (Vitus and I already figured this out), nor am I aware of any other local fighters living in Sunnyvale- just the other surrounding burbs.

I am happy to report that yesterday I received my ordered shield, as well as the additional shield Sir Vitus graciously provided due the delay in my order.

I will do a proper review once I get them fitted out, but they look like they will be perfect. I'm really looking forward to fighting with them.
