May just be a backlog.

So long as items are legit then I would not worry about it.

Pack the house.

Get ready to move.

Or, be a bit more patient.

I wasn't a big fan of Looney Tunes growing up because it seem kind of generically-drawn and not as spectacular as Transformers, GI Joe, other "modern" cartoons at the time but as of few years back, I do find it funny and witty.

The gags with Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner have their moments

In "my" era, those were the spectacular ones... the only viable alternative was the magic roundabout...

Yep, turning the screws again.

Been hearing of closer checks being made of items.

Incoming norty items are under watch.

Of course, the delay is not good.

But you have to consider it might not be bad...

or it is.
