Here was the only workaround...
public static function doSomething(param:Number=0):void {
var t:Timer = new Timer( 300, 1 );
//I can't pass arguments/parameters to my timer method???
var f:Function = function():void{
callTheRealFunc( param);
}
t.addEventListener( TimerEvent.TIMER, f );
t.start();
}
