From page D3 of the July 9 Bangor Daily News.
Preconceived notions: This guy took down his barn and now needs you to come pick up the pieces. He would light it all on fire, but it's too close to his house.
First hang up of this blog. I consider that an accomplishment. Every call I've made I was sure the person would hang up; the trick, I thought, was getting enough information to post something worthwhile before s/he hung up. Accomplished.
Grumpy old man hard of hearing picked up at about 4:05 p.m. I asked him about the barn he took down. "No, it's still standing," he said, after asking me to repeat my question and who I am multiple times.
The barn has not yet been taken down.
"We're going to take it down because I don't want it," he yelled into the phone.
When asked, "is there anything inside it?" he hung up.
Suspicious.
