What's his LinkedIn say?

One of the "quotes" I have in 2nd post is from LinkedIn, if I'm recalling . . .

Is this where I blame iPhone and cuss like an old fighter pilot's wife?

Looking through things others have posted on the Food Allergy Foundation facebook page, you can see something by the mother of the child who the "foundation" is seeking donations for.  The child shares a last name with the CEO.  The CEO also does not appear to be the child's father judging by his FB pix.

My fault I didn't specify. On his full LinkedIn did he have a sensible list of contacts in his network (industry, history)? Did he have any meaningful endorsements from key people for key skills or experience? You can only see those if you're logged into your own profile and the individual has record that you've viewed his profile.

If he says he needs money to build a nut-free ice cream facility, time to run for the hills!

I have been wondering who the people are behind this Foundation for some time. Someone on Twitter (it may have been the FoodAllergyB*) asked some questions and didn't get much info on Twitter. I don't know if she/he received more info privately in email or DM.

Nope. Got nothing, other than a "call me for more info."

Of course, I did not ask him if an ice cream factory was planned for the future. Perhaps he would have been more forthcoming.  :paddle:

Thank you. Wonder why all the mystery. A couple of weeks ago, whoever tweets for them asked me to call about peanut free baseball (I have a blog just about peanut allergy accommodations at baseball games), but I am not sure why. I'm not sure what to make of it. Hmmm....

Or.... not.

As the case may be, I mean.   ;D   CG, you are crackin' me up. 

It is interesting that the "call me!  Call Me!" thing is a standard thing, though...   :-/  I'm always a bit suspicious of things that HAVE to be said over the phone.  Makes me wonder why.

Resistance isn't futile.  It's voltage divided by current.

Yeah, CMDeux, I agree re "call me". These days, if people want to reach you, they will email, especially when writing to a blog. The lack of names on the site also is discomforting. I wouldn't even know who I was calling, if I were to call. lol!

Just some levity.
