I'm guessing there is one board member chomping at the bit to say "I told you so"

Hearing you say "I was wrong" will be just fine......

Burnt toast in the morning will do that to a man (or woman).

Unpossible!

Quote from:  Judy White, president of Miss Jackson's in August
“We have no plans to close our store. It’s business as usual. We’re planning fall events and getting ready for the holiday season.”

Their presser says they will close in January. Which makes sense for a retailer, but it also makes the above statement dubious... they were definitely planning for the holidays. But it seems unlikely they in August they didn't have a plan in place.
