When they only tell you what's coming down the pike less than one month in advance?? Not trying to rally the troops and get the pitchforks out for all you guys out there that like to jump down peoples throat. Just think its mildly pathetic that we don't know anything that's to be produced past Feb. 23rd. Am I the only one with this opinion?

    I think so.

    They have a regular schedule that's usually wihin a month or two on a very regular basis. It happens every year with regularity.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    Keep your "mint money" separate from your other money and you will always be ready for a moment's notice.
