smetrov Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 How does a weirdo ringing up a restaurant like that show what an ameteur Lerner is? Maybe the meeting is of little significance. But I thought he would have ordered a lockdown , radio silence, warning people of possible jouno's sniffing around .......etc Its seems none of thats been done...

All that's been confirmed is the zip code. I dont think this indicates anything. Yeah to be fair she could have put him on hold, said 'some idiot calls about the zipcode. Does he not have internet?' then she went for a fag, came back and told some random guy she never heard of the zip code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
