A friend offered to drive me to an event the other day. About ten minutes before he was supposed to pick me up, I called his cell phone to let him know I’d be waiting in front of my house. He didn’t answer, I figured maybe he was already in his car and doesn’t take calls while driving. So I left a short message that I’d be waiting out front.
He arrived about five minutes later. As I got into the car, he started checking his Blackberry for phone messages. He said to me, “hey, there’s a message from you, did you say anything important?” I said no, so he deleted it without listening to it.
