Amazon.com and the Big Lie

Amazon's a great site. It keeps luring me back.

But they should change the "Usually Ships in 24 hours" line to:

"We'll ship this when we're damned good and ready - and not a second sooner, so shut up about it. (But we'll tell you anything to make the sale.)"

Though that's a BIT more of a mouth full...
