Oh no, this can't be good. Oklahoma you should've deleted that info. For all our sake. :(

Yea I can see it now..

Caller: "Hi I'm inquiring about the RV"

IMF person: "Haven't you heard? It's pinging, bank screens are green, Obama signed off, Shabs has a brand new shiny Easy Button and he will be pushing it tomorrow!"

guys...don't go calling about the RV, just be patient....you're not going to get any information AT ALL......it doesn't even make sense for someone HIGH UP to give any random caller info on ANY country re-evaluating situation....come on guys.....seriously :mellow:

I second that.

I put the number on 'speed dial'. Plus I am using an app I found for my Droid that lets me program a text to be sent at any interval I want for as long as I want.

I'm going to use 'text to voice' and ask this guy every day at close of business if he would call or text me with an update on the RV.

Sound Good?

Said with as sarcastic as a voice as I can muster.

Oh yeah, when he calls me back (I'm pretty sure he will, because I'm an American) I'll post what he says for everyone here.
