Just sitting in my office about 1:15 today trying to get some stuff done.  
Phone kept ringing, and ringing, and ringing.  Caller just didn't get the 
message that I wasn't answering the phone.

A few minutes later a colleague stopped by my office and said "You should have 
answered your phone."  He'd just been watching about 35 Sandhill Cranes 
catching a thermal near Commerce Park in Oak Ridge, Anderson County.  They 
found what they were looking for and headed west-southwest.

Reckon that'll teach me!
